Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't understand why the build target is called in the first place. Can't you just run "debian/rules binary-arch" -- which is mandated by policy -- and everything will be ok because of the target dependancies in debian/rules. Why use build at all -- especially since dpkg-buildpackage can't determine the "right" thing with build/build-arch?!? And I would further argue that it's a bug for sbuild to use dpkg-buildpackage (as it's currently implemented, using the build target) without installing B-D-I. IOW, sbuild should fix this by installing B-D-I to work around the dpkg-buildpackage issue, or use some other method (run "debian/rules clean; debian/rules binary-arch" manually) to build the arch-only portions of packages. Then, when the issue with build/build-arch is finally resolved, only sbuild has to be changed -- rather than make every packager fix this for each and every package. --Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
