Hi Dima, sorry for the delay. I admit I'm more involved in Debian Med and hoped for some other sponsor on Debian Science. This did not happened and thus I try to stand to my suggestion and will help you.

Hmmm, I noticed that you do not have a pristine-tar branch (in both archives) and I finally get dpkg-source: error: can't build with source format '3.0 (quilt)': no upstream tarball found at ../libdogleg_0.08.orig.tar.{bz2,gz,lzma,xz} Any reason to not use pristine-tar? > liblbfgs has something broken with its upstream build system which causes it > to > ignore external CFLAGS and LDFLAGS.

Despite also a pristine-tar is lacking (no idea how git-buildpackage worked around here - I'm not a Git expert) the build worked and as far as I would see it the lintian warnings about hardening are false positives. Looking at the build log the hardening options are injected and thus I uploaded the package. Kind regards and thanks for the preparations Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
