Package: dpkg
Version: 1.13.22
Severity: serious
Justification: no longer builds from source

Hello,


dpkg currently fails to build from source on mips, which stops its
transition to testing.
The build log is available at
http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=dpkg&ver=1.13.22&arch=mips&stamp=1150904570&file=log&as=raw

After an investigation with Thiemo Seufer, this issue is caused by perl.
perl also FTBFS on mips, and the mips build daemon uses perl 5.8.8-4 and
perl-modules 5.8.8-6.
With this combination, the Encode::JP::JIS7 module is not installed, which
finaly causes the dpkg build failure.

To fix this bug, I can see the following actions:
 1) wait until #374396 (perl FTBFS on mips) or #377385 (perl-modules
    dependencies) is fixed
 2) manually build dpkg on mips with perl-modules 5.8.8-4
 3) adding `|| true' after calling po4a to make sure the generation of the
    translated man pages do not stop the build.

Note: the FTBFS in probably also present on hppa (where perl also FTBFS).

Kind Regards,

#374396 was fixed and dpkg was rebuilt successfully on mips.
