I understand that, but I am nor Perl expert, neither have time to become one, so unless somebody tells me what to do, chances that I can do anything on my own are minimal. If that `svn-buildpackage` was written in Python, I'd just run 'python -v -m pdb `which svn-buildpackage`' and could get you the source line with the error in no time. >> > Do you get problems with any other Perl scripts? >> >> None that I know of.

I suspect that Bcfg2 could break some things, but you've seen the dependencies yourself. There is no hardcore hacking on this box, especially with Perl. > I've tested in a clean pbuilder chroot and svn-bp is fine with it's own > dependencies.

As I said - I am not a Perl expert, but in Python world if Python code misbehaves so badly that it doesn't even execute - I am able to figure out what happens very quickly regardless of the platform (well, unless it is some web-service that requires os-specific methods to get to the entrypoint). >> > The first commands svn-buildpackage tries are calls to subversion >> > itself and that's probably the first place to check for something which >> > is compiled. >> >> What should I run to check? > > Anything and everything.

I good reason to consider decoupling our application from Debian. Thanks for trying, though. ,) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I've tested in a clean pbuilder chroot and svn-bp is fine with it's own dependencies.

Anything and everything. I can't tell you which ones because this problem only affects this one single machine. I also use svn-bp on various virtual environments for buildd operations, again without any errors. Test on your main system rather than a new box, test on someone else's virtual box, test in chroots; there's almost nothing we can do at this end until there is a way to reproduce the problem. If it only persists on this one system, the chances of identifying the actual problem approach zero. -- Neil Williams = http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/ pgpOoMQ8sJyzR.pgp Description: PGP signature

(apt-get --reinstall install svn-buildpackage) The first commands svn-buildpackage tries are calls to subversion itself and that's probably the first place to check for something which is compiled.

tag 646945 + moreinfo thanks Hi, thanks for trying to improve Debian!

When exactly did you encounter this behaviour. I've never seen this before. A test case would be nice. Also, please run svn-buildpackage with --svn-verbose to have a bit more output. Thanks!
