Hi Piotr, While converting the Oneiric version of gedit from pysupport to dhpy2 I noticed something, which from reading the documentation and wiki page I'm not sure is intended behavior. I wanted to check with you before I either submit a bug report or update the wiki page.
Here's the relevant bit from debian/rules before my change:
binary-install/gedit::
cd debian/gedit/usr/share/gedit && mv gedit-bugreport.sh gedit-bugreport
chmod 755 debian/gedit/usr/share/bug/gedit/script
dh_pysupport -pgedit /usr/lib/gedit/plugins
So, I tried to just s/dh_pysupport/dh_python2/ but that FTBFS because it tried
to put the public modules in site-packages instead of dist-packages. Colin
Watson guessed correctly that dh_python2 actually needs to be called twice,
once for the private modules and once for the public modules, e.g.
binary-install/gedit::
cd debian/gedit/usr/share/gedit && mv gedit-bugreport.sh gedit-bugreport
chmod 755 debian/gedit/usr/share/bug/gedit/script
dh_python2
dh_python2 -pgedit /usr/lib/gedit/plugins
And indeed, this worked.
Is this expected, or should the one line have handled both the public and
private modules?
Cheers,
-Barry
