--- Begin Message ---Package: debhelper Version: 7.4.10 Severity: important Any package using dh_fixperms (pretty-much all of them) fails to build because I get this error: chmod: changing permissions of debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools': Invalid argument dh_fixperms: find debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc -type d -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 755 returned exit code 123 If the offending command is run manually it works fine: find debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc -type d -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 755 I really don't understand what is going wrong -there isn't much to go wrong with chmod 755 I suspect it it is running the 'wrong' chmod - but I can't see how any version could find '755' an 'Invalid argument' This definately broke when I upgraded to current squeeze from mostly-lenny (so a huge pile of stuff changed, including the default /bin/sh.). I guess it may not really be a debhelper problem but it is manfesting here and I haven't noticed anything else broken. I've tried running dash as the shell and then doing find debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc -type d -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 755 and it still works fine. If I run dh_fixperms on it's own as myself I get: $ DH_VERBOSE=1 dh_fixperms find debian/build-tools -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chown --no-dereference 0:0 chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/share': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools/changelog': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/bin': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/bin/build': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/bin/repo-fixownerships': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/bin/repo-ipkg-reindex': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/bin/repo-insert-ipkg': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/bin/repo-processuploads': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/bin/repo-reprocess': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/bin/repo-listvoices': Operation not permitted chown: changing ownership of debian/build-tools/usr/bin/tcl-listversions': Operation not permitted dh_fixperms: find debian/build-tools -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chown --no-dereference 0:0 returned exit code 123 which is fair enough (no fakeroot) With fakeroot we get the dh_fixperms error: $ DH_VERBOSE=1 fakeroot dh_fixperms find debian/build-tools -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chown --no-dereference 0:0 find debian/build-tools ! -type l -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod go=rX,u+rw,a-s find debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc -type f ! -regex 'debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/[^/]*/examples/.*' -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 644 find debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc -type d -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 755 chmod: changing permissions of debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools': Invalid argument dh_fixperms: find debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc -type d -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 755 returned exit code 123 Running as root it works fine: # DH_VERBOSE=1 dh_fixperms find debian/build-tools -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chown --no-dereference 0:0 find debian/build-tools ! -type l -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod go=rX,u+rw,a-s find debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc -type f ! -regex 'debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/[^/]*/examples/.*' -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 644 find debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc -type d -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 755 find debian/build-tools/usr/share/man debian/build-tools/usr/man/ debian/build-tools/usr/X11*/man/ -type f -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 644 find debian/build-tools -perm -5 -type f \( -name '*.so*' -or -name '*.la' -or -name '*.a' \) -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 644 find debian/build-tools/usr/include -type f -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 644 find debian/build-tools/usr/share/applications -type f -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 644 find debian/build-tools -perm -5 -type f \( -name '*.cmxs' \) -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod 644 find debian/build-tools/usr/lib/perl5 debian/build-tools/usr/share/perl5 -type f -perm -5 -name '*.pm' -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod a-X find debian/build-tools/usr/bin -type f -print0 2>/dev/null | xargs -0r chmod a+x Running it as root via fakeroot we get the dh_fixperms problem again. That loks like a clue.
