Hi. Sorry for the late reply. I tried this: export LC_ALL=C dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -b and the package built ok, but the package "hub" has not changed version in a long time. I could be wrong, but I infer that this is likely to be a bug in groff, now fixed, so I'm doing the above reassign (using the bookworm version, since it works already in bookworm). > While working on the above issue I discovered the clean target was > broken, so I fixed that too. > > I have uploaded my fixes to Rapsbian A debdiff doing should appear soon at > https://debdiffs.raspbian.org/main/h/hub/ no intent to nmu in Debian. You are right, the clean target was broken. This was reported again in Bug #1047862 and it may be fixed by adding a few lines to debian/clean, which is what I will do. Thanks.
