Package: toolchain-source
Severity: wishlist

(bts is down, I hope I am not filing a duplicate...)

This is the output from today's tpkg-make run:

  sarge:~# tpkg-make powerpc-linux
  Package `toolchain-source-gdb' is not installed and no info is available.
  Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
  and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.

  Target                    : powerpc-linux

    gdb                     : toolchain-source-gdb not installed
  mv: cannot overwrite directory `binutils-powerpc-linux-2.15/binutils-TARGET'
  mv: cannot overwrite directory `gcc-powerpc-linux-3.4.3/gcc-TARGET'
  sh: line 1: gcc-powerpc-linux-3.4.3/debian/changelog.m4: No such file or 
directory
  rm: cannot remove `gcc-powerpc-linux-3.4.3/debian/changelog.m4': No such file

  : # unpack gcc tarball
  mkdir stamps
  mkdir: cannot create directory `stamps': File exists
  make: [stamps/01-unpack-stamp-gcc-3.4.3.tar.bz2] Error 1 (ignored)

I really appreciate the verbosity of the command, but there are a lot of errors
in there which could be hidden.

  - dpkg-deb could be called 2>/dev/null
  - before the mv call, check whether the target already exists
  - do something about changelog.m4 missing (check first)?
  - use the -f flag to rm
  - use the -p flag to mkdir

Thanks,
