Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.36release-1
Severity: important
Hi,
I encountered that krb5 doesn't build on i386 (while it does, e.g., on
sparc). The reason is that compile_et from comerr-dev is being used
which is generated at build time to use a certain version of awk.
On sparc, it is mawk. On i386 it is gawk, seemingly because gawk was
automatically found in the build environment of the maintainer at build
time. Unfortunately, comerr-dev doesn't Depend on gawk, so on i386 it
triggers an error.
Since the configure construction checks for gawk, then for mawk, this
one can be solved depending on which awk version should be used on all
platforms:
(1) Adding "Build-Conflicts: gawk" forces mawk to be used
(2) Adding gawk to Build-Depends causes gawk to be used. In this case,
we _at least_ need to make comerr-dev and ss-dev Build-Depend on
gawk manually.
Thanks for considering.
bye,
Roland
