Package: mindterm Version: 1.2.1-10 Severity: serious Tags: patch mindterm fails to build because some options to tar are passed after the directory to be archived:
> # Create tarball to distribute in binary to satisfy GPL (see > # README.Debian). > tar czf mindterm.tar.gz mindbright/ --exclude=\*.class \ > --dereference --exclude=mindbright/mindbright \ > --exclude=mindterm.tar.gz --exclude=CVS --exclude=debian > tar: --exclude=*.class: Cannot stat: No such file or directory > tar: --dereference: Cannot stat: No such file or directory > tar: --exclude=mindbright/mindbright: Cannot stat: No such file or directory > tar: --exclude=mindterm.tar.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory > tar: --exclude=CVS: Cannot stat: No such file or directory > tar: --exclude=debian: Cannot stat: No such file or directory > tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors The attached patch moves "mindbright/" to the end of the command line, which fixes this problem. -- Matt
