Dear all, I am experience a strange variation when building package from a Git repository or from the same source with the .git directory deleted.
In the first case I have the Lintian warning 'libhts0: hardening-no-relro usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhts.so.0.2.0~rc4-1', but not in the second case. The only git-dependant code that I found is to create a package version, but I override it in debian/rules by the Debian package's version. In Makefile: ifneq "$(wildcard .git)" "" original_version := $(PACKAGE_VERSION) PACKAGE_VERSION := $(shell git describe --always --dirty) In debian/rules: override_dh_auto_build: dh_auto_build -- \ CFLAGS="$$(dpkg-buildflags --get CFLAGS)" \ CPPFLAGS="-I. -DSAMTOOLS=1 $$(dpkg-buildflags --get CPPFLAGS)" \ LDFLAGS="$$(dpkg-buildflags --get LDFLAGS)" \ PACKAGE_VERSION="$(DEB_VERSION)" override_dh_auto_install: dh_auto_install -- prefix=/usr PACKAGE_VERSION="$(DEB_VERSION)" (Digression: I do this because after tagging a debian revision, for instance 'debian/0.2.0_rc3-1', the package will fail to build from the Git repository since the tag becomes used for the soversion of the library, and the slash is mistaken as a directory separator. Is there a smart solution to this problem ?) You can get the source with 'gbp clone https://github.com/Debian/htslib'. Does anybody see why the hardening-no-relro is triggered when building in presence of the .git directory ?
