Just a small note here, which I'm not sure you know already, in any case, while this was a bug in the upstream build system, if you are trying to build Debian packages you should install the Build-Depends (and Build-Depends-Indep in case you build architecture independent packages). You can use “apt-get build-dep $source_package” for packages from the archive or use dpkg-checkbuilddeps for package or releases not yet uploaded to check what build dependencies are still missing. If you are trying to just build as a normal upstream project then this would not apply. regards, guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
