Package: libdebhelper-perl
Version: 13.12
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: Sven Joachim <[email protected]>, [email protected]
Commit 018a0c9a7164f ("Dh_Lib.pm: Fix warning from `cp -n`") uses cp's
--update=none option which has been introduced rather recently, namely
in coreutils 9.3. Older versions of cp do not understand this option,
complain and refuse to operate. For instance dh_update_autotools_config
fails with older coreutils:
,----
| $ cp --version | head -n1
| cp (GNU coreutils) 9.1
| $ dh_update_autotools_config
| cp: option '--update' doesn't allow an argument
| Try 'cp --help' for more information.
| dh_update_autotools_config: error: cp -a --update=none --reflink=auto

returned exit code 1
`----
This is obviously bad for backports, more urgently it is going to make
many packages FTBFS on hurd-i386 which is stuck at coreutils 9.1-1.
I will open a separate bug on coreutils for giving the questionable
advice to use the --update=none option.
