Package: elfutils
Version: 0.176-1.1
Expectation: elfutils could be built with MAKEFLAGS=-w,
printing directory information
Actual: elfutils could not be built, target w is not found.
Steps to reproduce:
export MAKEFLAGS=-w
dpkg-buildpackages -us -uc -rfakeroot
Analysis:
* make translates MAKEFLAGS, changes its first single letter option,
remove dash from the flags.
* if first word in MAKEFLAGS is single letter, make will translate it
back to single letter options.
* If we pass MAKEFLAGS explicitly to $(MAKE), it won't translate like
Proposed fix:
sed -e '/[$](MAKE).*[$](MAKEFLAGS)/ s/[$](MAKEFLAGS)//' \
-e '/^DPKG_EXPORT_BUILDFLAGS/a export MAKEFLAGS' \
debian/rules
