Package: arbortext-catalog
Version: 1.01-3
Severity: serious
Build targets are not allowed to do anything requiring root privileges.
The debian/rules file has:
# build abstraction
install_file := install -o root -g root -m 644 -p
install_script := install -o root -g root -m 755 -p
install_program := install -o root -g root -m 755 -p --strip
make_directory := install -d -o root -g root -m 755
All of which require root permissions to run, and some of which get called
in the build target.
These are unnecessary, really, since installed files are owned by root, as
a default - as all of these files are root:root, and will end up as such
once installed, anyway, the explicit options can be removed from the rules
file, permitting proper builds.
(See Policy section 5.2 for the justification for making this a 'serious'
bug)

This bug was fixed in an NMU, but never closed. I'm closing it with the
correct version so that its status can be properly version-tracked.
For reference:
arbortext-catalog (1.01-3.1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Non-maintainer upload
* Fixed Build-Dependancies to require fastjar (closes: #133073)
* Fixed use of root in non-root-enabled build targets (closes: #134522)
Regards,
Adam
