Beware of using older/alternative development environment than (recently updated) Debian Sid. It seems from the lack of "folded" build-dependencies that you are using an old version of cdbs, and thus not an up-to-date Sid.

Yes, I'm using ubuntu/lucid on my laptop, which is the machine that I use for working on my source package. This is also the only machine that has a smartcard reader for my gpg key. From there, I ssh to a build machine running debian/lenny and build the packages in sid chroots.

This approach works fine for all packages I've worked on so far. Please don't tell me that this doesn't work for jack and I need to work on some other machine on the jack package. In that case I would have to ask someone else to regenerate debian/control for me.

How about I help you simplify a bit instead? :-)

You need not work on a host running Debian: You can create and use a Debian Sid chroot on your laptop. Off course if you deliberately want to use a different (faster?) machine as build host it might make sense anyway (but if you - like me - like the freedom of working while travelling, you might want to instead look into ccontrol and distcc, building locally but optionally off-loading compilations to that faster machine - while keeping a local cache of its results).

What I point out is just that you need to do more of your work inside a chroot.


Also, you may want to include utils.mk (available in recent versions of cdbs) which handles dh-buildinfo and its build-dependency.

feel free to do the change

Oh. Someone (me, probably :-) ) already did this some time ago, apparently.

Sorry for the noise about that, then.
