Package: svn-buildpackage Version: 0.8.0 Severity: normal If the upstream tarball in the tarballs directory is a symlink to the "real" upstream tarball in the same directory svn-buildpackage follows this symlink upon --svn-export and creates a hard-link to the target of the symlink in the build-area directory. But because this "orig" tarball in the build-area now has the wrong name it is not recognized by dpkg-source and dpkg-source builds a native package.
svn-buildpackage should instead create a hard link with the name of the original symlink it followed or create a symlink to the symlink in the tarballs directory. Example: tarballs/foo_linux-1.2.3.tar.gz (file downloaded from upstream with upstreams filename) tarballs/foo_1.2.3.orig.tar.gz -> foo_linux-1.2.3.tar.gz (symlink created to have the correct name) build-area/foo_linux-1.2.4.tar.gz (hard link created by svn-buildpackage --svn-export) build-area/foo_1.2.3.orig.tar.gz (svn-buildpackage --svn-export should create either a hard link or a symlink with this name) Gaudenz -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (800, 'testing'), (700, 'unstable'), (50, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_CH.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_CH.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages svn-buildpackage depends on: ii devscripts 2.10.64 scripts to make the life of a Debi ii file 5.04-2 Determines file type using "magic" ii libcapture-tiny-perl 0.07-1 module to capture STDOUT and STDER ii libfile-libmagic-perl 0.96-1 Perl interface to libmagic for det ii liblocale-gettext-perl 1.05-6 Using libc functions for internati ii libsvn-perl 1.6.9dfsg-1 Perl bindings for Subversion ii liburi-perl 1.54-1 module to manipulate and access UR ii perl 5.10.1-12 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii subversion 1.6.9dfsg-1 Advanced version control system ii unp 1.0.15 unpack (almost) everything with on ii wget 1.12-2 retrieves files from the web Versions of packages svn-buildpackage recommends: ii debhelper 7.4.17 helper programs for debian/rules svn-buildpackage suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
