What do you mean by “worked perfectly”? Remember that the problem I'm
encountering is that the package builds successfully, but with
‘${python:Depends}’ containing none of the dependencies declared in the
Setuptools script.
The Setuptools script definitely sets ‘install_requires’ in the ‘setup’
call:
=====
$ dget -x
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/mullvad-client/mullvad-client_60+dfsg.1-1.dsc
dget: retrieving
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/mullvad-client/mullvad-client_60+dfsg.1-1.dsc
[…]
dpkg-source: info: extracting mullvad-client in mullvad-client-60+dfsg.1
[…]
$ cd mullvad-client-60+dfsg.1/
$ python2 -c "
import setuptools
def report_install_requires(**kwargs):
print(kwargs['install_requires'])
setuptools.setup = report_install_requires
import setup
"
['appdirs', 'ipaddr', 'netifaces', 'psutil', 'wxPython']
=====
So that should be what ‘dh-python’ needs to infer dependencies for the
‘${python:Depends}’, yes?
That's not what happens though:
=====
$ cat debian/control
[…]
Package: mullvad-client
Architecture: all
Depends:
python-pkg-resources,
python,
openvpn,
resolvconf,
${python:Depends},
${misc:Depends}
[…]
$ dpkg-buildpackage -A
[…]
dpkg-deb: building package 'mullvad-client' in
'../mullvad-client_60+dfsg.1-1_all.deb'.
[…]
$ dpkg-deb --info ../mullvad-client_60+dfsg.1-1_all.deb
[…]
Depends: python-pkg-resources, python, openvpn, resolvconf
[…]
=====
Note that the “Depends” field has replaced ‘${python:Depends}’ with
nothing, where I would expect all the corresponding packages to satisfy
‘install_requires’ from Setuptools.
So that's the problem: Setuptools gets packages named in
‘install_requires’, yet ‘dh_python2’ is not using that for Debian
package dependencies in the ‘${python:Depends}’ substitution.
Do you get different behaviour from building that package?
How am I meant to tell ‘dh_python2’ to replace the ‘${python:Depends}’
with what the upstream Setuptools script declares are its dependencies?
