Package: libobject-realize-later-perl Version: 0.18-1 Severity: important Justification: fails to build from source
If you extract the source as libobject-realize-later-perl-0.18-1 rather than the default libobject-realize-later-perl-0.18, then the package builds without error but leaves out the modules due to using an incorrect directory name as a target. The variable PACKAGE is set in debian/rules using a regex on the current directory name, which is just insane. I have found a few perl packages failing in this way lately, and I only just realized why they build when I do it manually, but fail when I use sbuild. It would be much safer and much more sane to get the package name from debian/control rather than the current directory name. This works much better: PACKAGE=`grep Package: debian/control | sed -e "s/.*: *//"` -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libobject-realize-later-perl depends on: ii perl 5.10.0-19lenny2 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-base [libscalar-lis 5.10.0-19lenny2 minimal Perl system libobject-realize-later-perl recommends no packages. libobject-realize-later-perl suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
