Even if there is a proper way to avoid building a package, my understanding of
cdbs documentation is that setting DEB_*PACKAGES variables should have a similar effect. It could be that I don't understand cdbs's documentation. If I do understand the documentation correctly, why it didn't work for me? Doesn't the fact that it didn't work for me implies there is a bug? Either a bug in the code, or in the documentation. ----- Original Message ---- From: Jonas Smedegaard <d...@jones.dk> To: Regid Ichira <regi...@yahoo.com>; 627968-d...@bugs.debian.org Sent: Thu, June 9, 2011 3:51:05 PM Subject: Re: [Build-common-hackers] Bug#627968: Commenting the Package stanza in the control file Hi Regid, On 11-06-09 at 05:29am, Regid Ichira wrote: > I hope cdbs documentation is accurate, or there is an apparent > workaround, in other situations too. As far as understand this bugreport, Laurent Bigonville is correct: the proper way to avoid building a package is to remove it from the control file. That is general to Debian packaging, not specific to CDBS. I hereby close this bugreport as a non-bug.
