I am fairly sure you can use dpkg-buildpackage -b directly without the
orig.tar (at least I remember doing that in the past).  But if memory
serves, what pdebuild does is "build source, run pbuilder on
../.dsc", so I don't think that ever worked for pdebuild.

pdebuild without orig.tar.gz

2013-06-30 Thread Torquil Macdonald Sørensen 

Hi!

I'm having some problems using pdebuild recently. I'm pretty sure this 
command worked before, and I have updated my pbuilder chroot.


I don't have a orig.tar.gz, so I ask it to build a binary package, but I 
get this:


***
$ pdebuild --debuildopts -b
dpkg-buildpackage: source package mpich
dpkg-buildpackage: source version 3.0.3-1
dpkg-buildpackage: source changed by Lucas Nussbaum 
 dpkg-source --before-build mpich
 fakeroot debian/rules clean
dh clean  --parallel --with autoreconf
   dh_testdir -O--parallel
   dh_auto_clean -O--parallel
   dh_autoreconf_clean -O--parallel
   dh_clean -O--parallel
 dpkg-source -b mpich
dpkg-source: error: can't build with source format '3.0 (quilt)': no 
upstream tarball found at ../mpich_3.0.3.orig.tar.{bz2,gz,lzma,xz}

dpkg-buildpackage: error: dpkg-source -b mpich gave error exit status 255
**

Is this not the correct procedure to build binary packages without 
having an orig.tar.gz? Maybe my memory is fooling me, but I think it 
worked earlier.


I'm using Sid.
