This package FTBFS with perl 5.22.0-2, which removed support for a long- obsolete way of overriding PREFIX when calling 'make install' with ExtUtils::MakeMaker, as described in the lintian tag debian-rules-makemaker-prefix-is-deprecated[1] and the Debian Perl policy[2]: /usr/bin/make pure_install INSTALLDIRS=vendor \ PREFIX=/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/alien//usr \ VARPREFIX=/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/alien make[2]: Entering directory '/«PKGBUILDDIR»' Manifying 1 pod document Manifying 7 pod documents perl -i -pe "s/\@version\@/8.93/g" <alien.lsm.in >alien.lsm -i used with no filenames on the command line, reading from STDIN. perl -i -pe "s/\@version\@/8.93/g" <alien.spec.in >alien.spec -i used with no filenames on the command line, reading from STDIN. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ERROR: Can't create '/usr/bin' Do not have write permissions on '/usr/bin' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! at -e line 1. The fix is to use DESTDIR instead of PREFIX; please see the lintian description for examples. This bug will become release critical nearer the time of the perl 5.22 migration, expected during the (northern hemisphere) summer. Cheers, Dominic.
