Package: cdbs Version: 0.4.26-1.1 Severity: normal After some headbanging with strange errors, I just found out that if my cwd has spaces, the ant build fails. That's because there are no proper protection for variables. My specific problem was in /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/ant-vars.mk:
DEB_ANT_PROPERTYFILE = $(shell test -f $(CURDIR)/debian/ant.properties && echo $(CURDIR)/debian/ant.properties) should be: DEB_ANT_PROPERTYFILE = $(shell test -f "$(CURDIR)"/debian/ant.properties && echo "$(CURDIR)"/debian/ant.properties) This problem is everywhere in cdbs, and fixing this sole line didn't solve my problem, it just exploded later. I know "basename `pwd`" should not have spaces as per the Debian Policy, but nothing prevents me having it inside some other directory with spaces, as it was my case... Not to mention what could happen if the directory is called "blah; rm -rf .." :) -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-1-686 Locale: LANG=es_AR, LC_CTYPE=es_AR (charmap=ISO-8859-1) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
