I just tried applying the first part of the patch submitted for the bug. It looks like it doesn't work right with PBUILDERSATISFYDEPENDSCMD set to /usr/lib/pbuilder/pbuilder-satisfydepends-classic (which I need because the aptitude version doesn't really support --preserve-buildplace, which my pbuildd script needs to skip past currently unbuildable packages quickly). For example, trying to build cowdancer on amd64 I got:
-> Attempting to parse the build-deps -> Considering build-depdebhelper (>> 4.0.0) -> Trying debhelper -> Considering build-deppbuilder -> Trying pbuilder -> Considering build-depqemu [i386 amd64 powerpc] -> This package is not for this architecture -> Considering build-deplibklibc-dev -> Trying libklibc-dev -> Considering build-depklibc-utils -> Trying klibc-utils -> Considering build-depcpio -> Trying cpio -> Considering build-depbusybox-static -> Trying busybox-static -> Installing debhelper pbuilder libklibc-dev klibc-utils cpio busybox- static ... dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: qemu dpkg-buildpackage: warning: Build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting. dpkg-buildpackage: warning: (Use -d flag to override.) E: Failed autobuilding of package It does look like the patch works right with pbuilder-satisfydepends-aptitude. -- Daniel Schepler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
