Package: debhelper Version: 9.20140228 Severity: normal
I have a source package named "foo" with 2 binary packages "foo-ce" and "foo-pro" and one init script available as "debian/foo.init". When invoking dh_installinit it works only for the *first* listed binary package but fails for the second package (as in: doesn't install the according init and maintainer scripts). So: dh_installinit -pfoo-ce --name=foo -- defaults 80 works fine because foo-ce is the first listed binary package in debian/control, while: dh_installinit -pfoo-pro --name=foo -- defaults 80 is lacking the init script in the resulting package (which actually isn't easy to spot because of #462389 :-/). -> | % dpkg -c ../foo-ce_0.0.1_all.deb | grep init | drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2014-05-22 11:26 ./etc/init.d/ | -rwxr-xr-x root/root 19 2014-05-22 11:04 ./etc/init.d/foo | % dpkg -c ../foo-pro_0.0.1_all.deb| grep init | % When I switch the order of the packages foo-ce and foo-pro in debian/control to foo-pro and foo-ce it works fine for the foo-pro package but fails for foo-ce. One workaround is to create a symlink debian/foo-pro.foo.init pointing to the actual init script: | % ls -la debian/foo-pro.foo.init | lrwxrwxrwx 1 mika mika 8 May 22 11:17 debian/foo-pro.foo.init -> foo.init* If you want to reproduce the bug on your own: I've put a minimal working example package online at https://github.com/mika/debhelper-bug (initial commit with "old style" debhelper packaging, 2nd commit with "minimal style" debhelper packaging, but you can also just execute the dh_installinit command lines as mentioned above to reproduce the issue). regards, -mika- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
