Package: maint-guide
Version: 1.2.31
Severity: normal
/usr/share/doc/maint-guide/html/build.en.html says:
6.1. Complete (re)build
In order to perform a complete (re)build of a package properly, you
need to make sure you have installed
* the build-essential package,
* packages listed in the Build-Depends field (see Section 4.1,
“control”), and
* packages listed in the Build-Depends-indep field (see Section 4.1,
“control”).
Then you issue the following command in the source directory:
$ dpkg-buildpackage
but this can lead to incorrect build or build failure because the
environment is not sanitized, like here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=696290
The documentation should tell to use debuild instead. The debuild
command is mentioned later in this HTML file, but for automation only;
nothing is said about the environment problem.
