Package: src:horgand Version: 1.14-5 User: sanv...@debian.org Usertags: binary-indep Severity: important
Dear maintainer: I tried to build this package with "dpkg-buildpackage -A" (i.e. only architecture-independent packages), and it failed: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [...] fakeroot debian/rules binary-indep dh binary-indep --with autoreconf dh_testroot -i dh_prep -i dh_installdirs -i dh_auto_install -i make -j1 install DESTDIR=/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp AM_UPDATE_INFO_DIR=no make[1]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' Making install in src make[2]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/src' make[3]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/src' /bin/mkdir -p '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp/usr/lib/horgand' /usr/bin/install -c horgand '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp/usr/lib/horgand' make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'install-data-am'. make[3]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/src' make[2]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/src' Making install in data make[2]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/data' make[3]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/data' make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'install-exec-am'. /bin/mkdir -p '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp/usr/share/horgand' /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 Default.horeb Rhythm_List.txt 130_Houseloop_2.wav AcousticBass.wav crackle_loop01.wav egg_loop01.wav FenderBass.wav FretlessBass.wav frog_loop01.wav funkyfeet1.wav '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp/usr/share/horgand' make[3]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/data' make[2]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/data' Making install in man make[2]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/man' make[3]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/man' make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'install-exec-am'. /bin/mkdir -p '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp/usr/share/man/man1' /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 horgand.1 '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp/usr/share/man/man1' make[3]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/man' make[2]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/man' make[2]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' make[3]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'install-exec-am'. make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'install-data-am'. make[3]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' make[2]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' debian/rules override_dh_install make[1]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' dh_install cp debian/horgand.wrapper /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/horgand/usr/bin/horgand cp: cannot create regular file '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/horgand/usr/bin/horgand': No such file or directory debian/rules:10: recipe for target 'override_dh_install' failed make[1]: *** [override_dh_install] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' debian/rules:4: recipe for target 'binary-indep' failed make: *** [binary-indep] Error 2 dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary-indep gave error exit status 2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sorry not to have a fix, as I am reporting many bugs similar to this one, but I can give some general hints: * If all the arch-independent packages are dummy transitional packages released with jessie, the easy fix is to drop them now. * If not, debian/rules should be modified so that the binary-indep target works in all cases, even when binary-arch is not used (this is what the "Architecture: all" autobuilder does). For that: * If you are using debhelper, you might want to use options -a and -i for dh_* commands so that they do not act on packages they do not have to act. * Also, if you are using dh, the (independently) optional targets override_dh_foo-arch and override_dh_foo-indep (for several values of "foo") may be useful to write a debian/rules which behaves exactly as desired. After checking that both "dpkg-buildpackage -A" and "dpkg-buildpackage -B" work properly, this package will be suitable to be uploaded in source-only form if you wish (you might want to try it).
