Source: exim4
Version: 4.84-8
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
Dear Maintainer,
In the past it was very easy to build this custom package using the following
steps:
# apt-get source exim4
# cd exim4-4.72
# fakeroot debian/rules unpack-configs
# cp EDITME.exim4-light EDITME.exim4-custom
# vi EDITME.exim4-custom
<edit EDITME.exim4-custom to enable MySQL support>
# fakeroot debian/rules pack-configs
# debuild
While migrating to Jessie it seems that building a custom package seems not
working for current stable version of Exim4.
First issue is a error message in <pack-config> which seems to could be ignored.
Second issue is that the config file EDITME.eximon seems NOT to be copied into
the 'Local' directory for the custom package what breaks the build process.
This problem I could work around due modifying debian/rules.
Next and for now final problem is the following error stating that .../usr/sbin
directory is missing and so the binary could not be installed. This problem
also prevents the build process from building any package.
