Package: logidee-tools
Version: 1.2.4-2
Severity: serious
pbuilder fails to build logidee-tools in an unstable chroot on i386:

XPath error : Undefined variable
This is a bug in xsltproc ... because the variable exists and is even
defined in the command line (and also with xsl:param inside the top
XSL stylesheet). I could reproduce the bug with xsltproc 1.1.15-1... and
this code has been working for 4 years already with xsltproc without any
problem.
Thus I'm reassigning the bug. I also attach ignore.xsl which can be
used as a minimal test case to reproduce the bug :
$ xsltproc --stringparam trainer false ignore.xsl
XPath error : Undefined variable
not(@trainer=$trainer or $trainer='true' or not(@trainer))
^
compilation error: file ignore.xsl line 9 element template
Failed to compile predicate
I guess this is the same as #334784, but i don't have time to check
right now. If you have some time, would you test the patch and see if it
helps your problem ?
Cheers,
Mike

Yeah I know that, but in my case it's uglier than before. I have an ignore stylesheet which defines high priority templates to override some specific templates ... but the criteria to define the specificity includes this variable. This ignore stylesheet is used by several other stylesheet. I have to put dozens of xsl:if in several stylesheets when 3 generic templates did the work until now. If you can tell which files are concerned and where i can find them, i can help when i have some time for it (or if it's just trivial). Thanks for the offer, but I'm the upstream of logidee-tools so I know it well enough to be able to fix it myself ... It's just bothersome to do when it used to work. :-) Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog -+- http://www.ouaza.com Freexian : des développeurs Debian au service des entreprises http://www.freexian.com

Maybe you can hack something with modes ? Well, that depends on how your stuff is done... Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
