Hi,
I am building a .deb package for a library from source tar to .deb ( 2
packages)
I was able to specify the right Build-depends section of the
debian/control file and build ( sudo pbuilder build ../*.dsc) the .deb to
completion (I got : libvirt_0.6.1-1_i386.deb and
libvirt-dev_0.6.1-1_i386.deb).
But i see at the end of the build output the following message (bold) :
......
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_installchangelogs ChangeLog
dh_installdocs

dh_link

subdirectories
......
Notice the bold warning . why the build process does not recognize the
Depends section in the control file ?
While I was generating a .deb for a binary package (not a library) the
first warning (${shlibs:Depends}) did not show up.
At the end see the debian/control file (generated by dh_make -e ) and
the .dsc file (that was generated by : debuild -S -us -uc) I am using:
When i copied the 2 .deb files to another Ubuntu system and tried to
apt-get install them the libvirt-dev was installed ok but the
libvirt_0.6.1-1_i386.deb installation returned the following message :
d...@lnx-phenix2:~/reservoir$ sudo apt-get install libvirt
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libvirt is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package libvirt has no installation candidate
Any idea what is wrong ?
BTW: in the process of building the libvirt-dev package where is the *.h
files copied in the build environment before being packed into the .deb
file . I see no debian/tmp file in the build system
