$ fakeroot r...@eisluft:~/tcl/lwdev-svn/tools/build-tools# chmod 755 debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools chmod: changing permissions of debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools': Invalid argument r...@eisluft:~/tcl/lwdev-svn/tools/build-tools# chmod 755 debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools chmod: changing permissions of debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools': Invalid argument r...@eisluft:~/tcl/lwdev-svn/tools/build-tools# chmod 755 debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools r...@eisluft:~/tcl/lwdev-svn/tools/build-tools# chmod 755 debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools foo chmod: cannot access foo': No such file or directory r...@eisluft:~/tcl/lwdev-svn/tools/build-tools# chmod 755 debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc/build-tools debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc chmod: changing permissions of debian/build-tools/usr/share/doc': Invalid argument OK, yes, looks like the second valid file given to chmod inside fakeroot is giving invalid argument. Thanx for the clarity of thought. I'll do some more tests to narrow it down. perhaps re-assign to fakeroot for now? It's clearly not debhelper's fault.
