Source: dpkg
Version: 1.22.13
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy §5.6.31
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
dpkg 1.22.13 implemented a backwards-incompatible change,
violating Policy (which states the default value is most
certainly *not* “no”) and breaking builds of packages.
dpkg (1.22.13) unstable; urgency=medium
- Dpkg::BuildDriver::DebianRules: Change default R³ value to «no».
I’ve confirmed that an explicit “Rules-Requires-Root: binary-targets”
ceteris paribus fixes the build, so the breakage was indeed introduced
by this dpkg change. Please revert it.
