dh-python: Flit plugin suddenly installs to usr/local/ causing FTBFS
Hi, I'm writing to the list as I'm not sure what the source of the problem is. The symptom is that at least three packages (flit, solo-python and weasyprint) start to FTBFS as flit installs the binaries to usr/local/bin instead of usr/bin - see #1009392, #1009397 and #1009461. I looked through the changes in dh-python after 2022-03-13 (my last known good build of solo-python) but couldn't find anything relevant there, flit itself wasn't updated either. Thanks to the reproducible builds I can confirm that it doesn't seem to be related to the dh-python upload on 2022-04-03, as weasyprint FTBFS on that same day with the older dh-python version (see https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rbuild/unstable/arm64/weasyprint_54.1-1.rbuild.log.gz). I don't see any uploads of related packages in that period ... do you have any ideas what's going on there?

Hi, I missed one details: these three packages are the only ones which fail with this specific error (dh_usrlocal: error: debian/solo-python/usr/local/bin/solo is not a directory) in the rebuild of unstable Lucas did (see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=ftbfs-20220412;users=lu...@debian.org) and I can also reproduce it locally.

It'll be something related to https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2022/03/msg00039.html I'll have a more detailed look, later today. SR -- Stefano Rivera http://tumbleweed.org.za/ +1 415 683 3272

I'll have a more detailed look, later today. I think I found a way to fix it, just like you did it here https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/tools/dh-python/-/commit/6137db4dc870672615c31c9d1c9535dafe5b0d2a I'll create a MR later.

Aha, of course. You can try to use the pyproject plugin, directly (we should retire the flit plugin in favour of it, at some point). But yes, fixing the flit plugin should be simple enough...

re: PyQt5 question: why are QOpenGLTimeMonitor/QOpenGLTimerQuery not defined on armhf?
But nowhere do I find any of QT_NO_OPENGL or QT_OPENGL_ES* defined in the package (but then maybe I'm not looking in the right place? So I don't know why these two classes are included in the amd64 version of the package but not the armhf version. The reason is that QT on armel/armhf is built for opengl ES rather than desktop opengl. I believe the reason for this is historic hardware support on armhf systems.

I did that and it indeed fixes the problem. But yes, fixing the flit plugin should be simple enough... I did it, but somehow was not able to create a MR, here is the commit, that fixes it for me: https://salsa.debian.org/rinni/dh-python/-/commit/b8c3a52aaccc07bbd64219c445b0e735d546c4ef Thanks & best regards Philip OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature
