Source: vcdimager Version: 2.0.1+dfsg-4 Tags: patch User: helm...@debian.org Usertags: rebootstrap
vcdimager participates in dependency loops relevant to architecture bootstrap. Instead of looking into such a difficult problem, I looked into easily droppable dependencies and noticed that texinfo is no longer used. This may be an artifact of a broken docs/Makefile.am that assigns EXTRA_DIST twice. In effect, it does not build any texinfo documentation nor install it. Please consider applying the attached patch to drop the texinfo dependency. Alternatively, build the documentation. Helmut
