Package: src:freealut Version: 1.1.0-3 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hi!
An incoming version of findutils drops the syntax of find -perm +0123, which contradicts POSIX and thus has been deprecated since 2005. The replacement is -perm /0123. freealut uses it in three times in its build system, two of which look like they should be built from source rather than to patch the output of an automated tool. Inappropriateness of patching Makefile.in aside, to fix the problem at hand, please run: sed -i 's:-perm +\([0-9]\):-perm /\1:g' `find -type f` -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (150, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.9.4-x32 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
