Package: xapian-core Version: 1.0.4-1 Severity: minor Building xapian-core requires a C++ compiler, but Build-Depends lacks c++-compiler.
When trying to build the package, the output ends with: checking whether to build static libraries... yes configure: creating libtool appending configuration tag "CXX" to libtool checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... (cached) no checking whether g++ accepts -g... (cached) no checking dependency style of g++... (cached) none checking whether g++ is a working C++ compiler... no configure: error: *** You need a working C++ compiler to compile Xapian, but configure failed to *** find one. If you have a working C++ compiler, you can tell configure where *** to find it by invoking it like so: *** *** ./configure CXX=/opt/bin/c++ make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1 debuild: fatal error at line 1237: debian/rules build failed When there is no c++ compiler installed. I guess the change is something as trivial as: --- debian/control.orig 2007-12-18 10:16:51.329008360 +0100 +++ debian/control 2007-12-18 10:17:02.782129912 +0100 @@ -3,7 +3,7 @@ Priority: optional Maintainer: Olly Betts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Standards-Version: 3.7.2 -Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 4.1.22), autotools-dev, zlib1g-dev +Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 4.1.22), autotools-dev, zlib1g-dev, c++-compiler Package: libxapian15 Architecture: any -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.23.8-asjo-powerpc Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=da_DK (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
