Back in February, it was around 14% remaining. When we originally added the hack, it was a bit under 50% supported. Primarily dh and cdbs usage. A lot of the gains are due to dh adoption since then.

If they are, the maintainers have obviously been ignoring lintian for quite some time. We've been quite kind in giving them two years to switch over; maybe it's time for the stick and forcing them to be updated if they are to be built again? We're likely well into the long tail of infrequently- updated packages at this point. If we can update the hack to keep it in use for a while longer, that's great. It will definitely ease the pain.

On both I'm getting this: dpkg-buildpackage: warning: debian/rules must be updated to support the 'build-arch' and 'build-indep' targets (at least 'build-arch' seems to be missing) Looks like the new make is not doing the expected thing when called as make -f debian/rules -qn build-arch With the old make (3.8,1), it correctly loads B-D-I and calls build-indep, with make 4.0-[12], it fails to determine of the target exists, and calls ./debian/rules build (And by expected is return 2 when not found, any other return code otherwise). Right. Since dpkg-buildpackage cannot ascertain that 'build-arch' and 'build-indep' targets exist, it calls build, and does not load B-D-I first. Most of the archive works, since B-D-I was not paid any attention to on the buildds, and every package used to build with ./debian/rules build and all the dependencies used to be in Build-Depends. Since then, B-D-I has been fixed, and we see empirical evidence that around 60 packages have made us of that. I don't know why the behaviour has changed; but I have tested it on apt and opusfile, and a couple of other packages. I will cut a normal bug on dpkg, and a serious one on make, and make the former block the latter while we figure otu what to do. The options, as I see it are: 1) Do nothing. retain make-3.81 in Debian forever more. Needless to say, this is not very attractive. Pro: There is no action to take. Con: Almost every other distro is shipping a more recent make. We will continue to diverge from everyone else, and already the featires have diverged enough that people are having to add special cases in the vuild system for the Debian family of distributions. 2) Hack dpkg-buildpackage to always load B-D-I, and go back to just calling ./debian/rules build. This is what we used to do. Pro: it is pretty easy to do (umm, I would think, but I don't know the dpkg code base so well anymore). This has the con of the inefficiency we have tried to eliminate, in that all the build dependencies are loaded for every build, even when not strictly needed. 3) We state that packages must provide build-arch and build-indep for Jessie. This should trivially be true for every package using cdbs or debhelper (or, heaven forbid, my old home brew build system), and have dpkg-buildpackage call them without testing to see if they exist. We would need to do another archive rebuild with the modified dpkg-buildpackage to see how many packages do not actually not implement these targets. None of these are very pretty. manoj -- Just because he's dead is no reason to lay off work.

Yeah, I was wrong about my analysis here. I'll let Sam know. (Although it's still a minor bug that the package doesn't B-D-I directly on python-lxml.)

Well, 2 is going back on something that we're trying to transition, and 1 seems obviously unacceptable. 3 is where we were trying to get to anyway. I vote for just biting the bullet and trying to do 3 for jessie. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
