Package: apt Version: 1.6.1 Severity: serious Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
control: block 897104 by -1 Hi, The googletest package provides full sources -- including header files -- in /usr/src/googletest. Prior to version 1.8.0-9, a second copy of the headers was mistakenly installed into /usr/include. Your package relies on this behaviour and now fails to build since googletest version 1.8.0-9 no longer installs the duplicate header files. I can suggest three alternative approaches to fix this. 1. Modify the build to look for headers in /usr/src/googletest. 2. Change to using pre-build libraries, in which case you would switch build-dependencies to libgtest-dev and libgmock-dev rather than using googletest. 3. Add build-dependency on libgtest-dev to ensure the headers are located in /usr/include as before. If gmock is used, then add a dependency on libgmock-dev as well. -Steve
