Source: iagno
Version: 1:50~alpha-1
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
Attempting to build iagno with the nocheck build profile fails. A build
fails as follows:
| Got pkg-config variable glib_compile_schemas :
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/glib-compile-schemas

I suspect that desktop-file-utils is not as optional as debian/control
claims.
