Package: mercurial Version: 1.1.2-2 Hi,
The mercurial rules file contains the following:
binary-install/mercurial::
pysupport-movemodules debian/mercurial
# remove arch-independent python stuff
rm -rf $(CURDIR)/debian/mercurial/usr/share/python-support
binary-install/mercurial-common::
pysupport-movemodules debian/mercurial-common
# remove arch-dependent python stuff
rm -rf $(CURDIR)/debian/mercurial-common/usr/lib/python-support
rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty
$(CURDIR)/debian/mercurial-common/usr/lib
With the upcoming version of python-support (currently in experimental),
such statements will make the package FTBFS, since the files are now
moved to a different directory (/usr/share/pyshared). Furthermore, the
pysupport-movemodules tool has been moved to a private directory and is
not usable directly anymore.
If you really want to keep working this way, we can synchronize an
upload with that of the new python-support version, but it would be
better to do things a different way instead. I suggest to use
debian/*.install files or to loop over files in
debian/tmp/usr/lib/python*/site-packages instead.
As a general rule, please do not rely on the internals of python-support
in the packaging; this will avoid such issues in the future (although
hopefully there won’t be a need to change the paths any further).
Thanks,
--
