Package: dh-make-perl Version: 0.109 Severity: wishlist Modern apt supports installing local packages like this:
apt-get install ./foo.deb It would be nice for dh-make-perl to support this (possibly also aptitude too). Some situations might require different install tools so an option might be best. Using apt has the advantage of installing any extra dependencies that already exist in the Debian archive instead of failing the install. Allowing for use of aptitude has the advantage of a much more flexible dependency resolver for complicated installs. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing-debug APT policy: (900, 'testing-debug'), (900, 'testing'), (860, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (800, 'unstable-debug'), (800, 'unstable'), (790, 'buildd-unstable'), (700, 'experimental-debug'), (700, 'experimental'), (690, 'buildd-experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.4.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_AU.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_AU:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages dh-make-perl depends on: ii debhelper 12.9 ii dpkg-dev 1.19.7 ii fakeroot 1.24-1 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.36+b3 ii libarray-unique-perl 0.08-2 ii libclass-accessor-perl 0.51-1 ii libconfig-ini-perl 1:0.025-1 ii libconfig-model-dpkg-perl 2.132 ii libdebian-source-perl 0.109 ii libdpkg-perl 1.19.7 ii libemail-address-xs-perl 1.04-1+b2 ii libemail-date-format-perl 1.005-1 ii libfile-which-perl 1.23-1 ii liblist-moreutils-perl 0.416-1+b5 ii libmodule-depends-perl 0.16-3 ii libsoftware-license-perl 0.103014-2 ii libtie-ixhash-perl 1.23-2 ii libwww-mechanize-perl 1.96-1 ii libwww-perl 6.43-1 ii libyaml-libyaml-perl 0.80+repack-2+b1 ii libyaml-perl 1.30-1 ii make 4.2.1-1.2 ii perl 5.30.0-9 ii pseudo [fakeroot] 1.9.0+git20190802+060058b-1 Versions of packages dh-make-perl recommends: ii apt 2.0.0 ii apt-file 3.2.2 ii git 1:2.25.1-1 ii libdpkg-parse-perl 0.03-2 ii libmodule-build-perl 0.423100-1 pn libsys-cpu-perl <none> ii pristine-tar 1.47 dh-make-perl suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
