I suppose it would be easier to hack on CDBS rules file if you happen to be CDBS author. I however didn't find it easier when I was trying to do the equivalent of 'override_dh_gencontrol' using CDBS. For example, look at [1]. Chromium browser dlopen's ffmpeg libs. In order to depend on proper ffmpeg libs using dpkg-shlibdeps mechanism of calculating dependencies, the dependencies have to be manually added. It took me quite a while to figure out that the equivalent for 'override_dh_gencontrol' in CDBS is overridding 'binary-makedeb-IMPL/package_name::' target from debhelper.mk. It was not documented cdbs-doc, so I had to actually look at the source to figure this out. This reminds me. I should now report a bug to CDBS about this. 1. http://bzr.debian.org/scm/loggerhead/pkg-chromium/chromium-browser/chromium-browser.sid/annotate/head:/debian/rules Kind regards, - Jonas -- Regards, Andres Mejia ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers

Seems to be some issue with autoconf outputting badly formatted configure script, unless arguments to AC_CHECK_HEADER and AC_CHECK_LIB are sandwiched between '[' and ']'. Also, package dh-autoreconf could resolve this issue. However, as I was saying before, I rather not build depend on autotools and have to regenerate the build system on the buildd machines.
