Thanks for this bug report and thanks for finding a solution.
Anyway I plan to repackage the Core GNUstep packages (including gnustep-make),
and rewriting debian/rules using dh_overrides_* targets. (If there are no objections from other Debian GNUstep Maintainers) It should solve these bugs. Thanks Eric Le 03/05/2016 02:07, Santiago Vila a écrit :
Package: src:gnustep-make Version: 2.6.6-3 Severity: serious Dear maintainer: While investigating Bug #806197 I found the following policy violations in debian/rules: * The build target should depend on build-arch and build-indep. Currently, it is like this: # NOTE: The Build-Indep-Depends are only available, when building the # build-indep packages. build: build-arch # build-indep Quoting policy speaking about build-arch and build-indep: The build target should either depend on those targets or take the same actions as invoking those targets would perform. If I only install build-depends and not build-indep-depends, it follows that I can only use the build-arch target, but that's *my* problem. The build target should still build everything, for the case that I install all the build-dependencies and want to build everything. * The "build-indep" target depends indirectly on "binary-arch" (!). This is what I see: build-indep: debian/build-indep-stamp clean_files += debian/build-indep-stamp debian/build-indep-stamp: binary-arch Well, binary-arch is where architecture-dependent .deb packages are created (i.e. Arch: any). Quoting policy: The build-arch and build-indep targets must not do anything that might require root privilege. Because actually creating .deb packages requires to be root (or fakeroot), it follows that build-indep must *not* depend on any of the binary targets. This is probably the reason why "dpkg-buildpackage -A" fails (Bug #806197), but I can't verify this easily because I don't have a fixed debian/rules.
