Package: squashfs
Version: 1:3.3-7
Severity: wishlist
Usertags: 3.0-quilt-by-default
To prepare a possible switch to the new source package format "3.0
(quilt)" [1], I converted all source packages and tried to rebuild them.
Unfortunately, squashfs failed, you can try yourself with those
commands (and dpkg-dev >= 1.14.19 [2]) :
$ apt-get source squashfs
$ sed -i -e '/^Source:/ aFormat: 3.0 (quilt)' squashfs-3.3/debian/control
$ dpkg-source -b squashfs-3.3
$ dpkg-source -x squashfs_3.3-7.dsc
$ cd squashfs-3.3 && debuild -us -uc
In this process, if the .diff.gz contains changes to upstream files,
dpkg-source will have created a corresponding patch in
debian/patches/debian-changes-1:3.3-7 and will have registered that
patch in a quilt series (debian/patches/series, it is created if needed).
All the patches listed in the "series" file are applied directly during
the extraction (dpkg-source -x). quilt itself is used if available (and
will thus lead to the creation of the .pc directory), otherwise
dpkg-source applies the patches by itself. For more information about the
new source package format see the manual page dpkg-source(1).
In the case of squashfs, the quilt series only applies once the
linux-2.6 directory has been unpacked (the pre-build rule)
but dpkg-source tries to apply right after unpack.
It would be nice to hanle the relevant fix separately (or merge directly
in the kernel patch used to created that directory).
As a side note, you must also pay attention to the following points in
your quilt usage to guarantee compatibility with the new source package
format:
- all your patches must be applicable with the "-p1" option of patch
(and you shouldn't use options in the series file to override this)
- the patches must be in debian/patches/ together with the "series" file
(you can use QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches if needed)
- you should not override QUILT_PC to change the location of quilt's
internal directory (".pc" by default)
- the patches should not reference absolute filenames (in +++/--- lines)
- your clean target must work even if the patches are already applied
- your build target must work with patches applied even if the clean
target is supposed to unapply them (because dpkg-source -b might
have applied them back)
Cheers,
[1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2008/04/msg00004.html
[2] the upcoming dpkg-dev 1.14.20 is more tolerant with patches, you can
grab it here if you want to try with that version:
