--- Begin Message ---Package: alien Version: 8.95.3 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, It appears, sometime between 8.95 and 8.95.3, alien started generating incorrect debian/rules output, resulting in it being unable to convert at least RPMs[1] into DEBs successfully (though I'm guessing it broke everything.) In particular, it generates debian/rules that look like: %: dh when the clear intention from reading the source is to generate: %: dh $@ The patch below corrects this behavior, and allows alien to correctly generate DEBs in at least the RPM packages I was testing with. --- ./blib/lib/Alien/Package/Deb.pm.old 2021-02-24 20:25:49.896411306 -0500 +++ ./blib/lib/Alien/Package/Deb.pm 2021-02-24 20:26:06.868446646 -0500 @@ -472,7 +472,7 @@ PACKAGE=\$(shell dh_listpackages) %: - dh $@ + dh \$\@ override_dh_clean: dh_clean -d Hopefully someone will apply this at some point, though I'm aware alien is currently unmaintained. - Rich [1] - cf. https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/11650 -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.8 APT prefers stable APT policy: (1000, 'stable'), (900, 'testing-debug'), (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable-debug'), (800, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'proposed-updates-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-13-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages alien depends on: ii cpio 2.12+dfsg-9 ii debhelper 12.1.1 ii dpkg-dev 1.19.7 ii make 4.2.1-1.2 ii perl 5.28.1-6+deb10u1 ii rpm 4.14.2.1+dfsg1-1 ii rpm2cpio 4.14.2.1+dfsg1-1 alien recommends no packages.
