Package: src:python-apt Version: 1.1.0~beta4 Severity: serious Dear maintainer:
I tried to build this package with "dpkg-buildpackage -A" (which is what the "Arch: all" autobuilder would do to build it) but it failed: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [...] debian/rules build-indep dh build-indep --with python2,python3,sphinxdoc dh_testdir -i dh_update_autotools_config -i dh_auto_configure -i debian/rules override_dh_auto_build make[1]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' dh_auto_build python2.7-dbg setup.py build --force running build running build_py creating build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.7-pydebug creating build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.7-pydebug/apt [... snipped ...] AptKeyError: The apt-key script failed with return code 255: /tmp/tmplfwiB2/fakeroot-apt-key add /tmp/tmpHWnppm stdout: stderr: Error: gnupg or gnupg2 do not seem to be installed, Error: but apt-key requires gnupg or gnupg2 for this operation. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The gnupg package is not "Essential: yes". To reproduce, please try to build the package on a chroot not having gnupg installed (sbuild now allows this). Thanks.
