No I reported the bug before applying any patch. After I moved on with my stuff, which is unrelated. Fresh download and unpack of rsync debian sources give the same error: $ rm -rf rsync-3.0.9 $ dpkg-source -x rsync_3.0.9-4.dsc $ cd rsync-3.0.9 $ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b [...] dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2
When you say you have no problem compiling on squeeze, do you compile rsync/unstable on squeeze too? - build rsync/squeeze on squeeze works because debian/rules do not have the backticks `` lines - build rsync/unstable on unstable works, backticks `` get expanded before passed to configure.sh - not sure how - build rsync/unstable on squeeze does not work, backticks `` do not get expanded and configure.sh complains This does not seem to be an sh -> bash/dash issue, I've tried both. What do you think of my proposed debian/rules patch replacing backticks `` with $()? In addition to fixing build on squeeze, it will make these 2 lines consistent with the rest of the file (CPPFLAGS, DEB_BUILD_ARCH, DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE, DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE).
