Before the change, they used "apt-get build-dep ." to gather the build-deps, but this didn't work for *-backports or experimental or Jessie. Also it would pull in recommended packages, which could make the build unreproducible and is agains Policy 4.2. I changed the resolver to use a combination of mk-build-deps and aptitude, the same as sbuild and pbuilder use to resolve build-deps, to better handle alternatives. You may have hid an edge case I didn't encounter during my testing. > [1] https://salsa.debian.org/debian/nix/blob/kaiha/wip/debian/control Do you have a pipeline log on Salsa showing the mis-selection of build-deps? During a cursory glance I could only find logs showing the use of libcurl4-gnutls-dev. Grüße, Sven. -- Sigmentation fault. Core dumped.
