Package: broctl
Version: 1.4-1
Severity: normal
User: m...@linux.it
Usertags: usrmerge
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
The package currently fails to build reproducibly on merged-usr vs
non-merged systems. This is because the build systems InstallShellScript
macro rewrites shebangs by looking up things via PATH which can lead
to picking up unwanted paths (eg. /usr/local/bin/bash).
The upstream build system has already identified this problem and
provides a configure flag to disable the rewriting: --binary-package
Unfortunately it seems dh doesn't use the provided configure script
but invokes CMake directly, thus I had to define the "internal" symbol
that --binary-package sets: -DBINARY_PACKAGE_MODE=true
Please see the attached patch that fixes this bug report.
Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
