[Bug 1936697] Re: Unlisted dependency
Hello Mattia, and thank you for clarifying the role pbuilder plays in ubuntu-dev-tools. The page I linked above does not mention alternatives to pbuilder; that is why I thought it was necessary. Given that pbuilder is, in fact, optional, I think the solution Jessica proposed (adding python3-distutils as a Recommends:) is a reasonable one.

[Bug 1936697] Re: Unlisted dependency
because pbuilder is not "a necessary tool": there are several other alternatives to it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1936697 Title: Unlisted dependency To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools/+bug/1936697/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1936697] Re: Unlisted dependency
Hello Jessica, and thank you for your rapid response. Your explanation of the dependency situation with pbuilder and ubuntu-dev-tools is helpful. However, I don't understand why pbuilder itself is only suggested and not required by ubuntu-dev-tools. According to the Ubuntu Packaging Manual(https://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/getting-set- up.html#set-up-pbuilder), pbuilder is a necessary tool for the packaging process. I think that pbuilder, and by extension python3-distutils should both be required by ubuntu-dev-tools.

[Bug 1936697] Re: Unlisted dependency
pbuilder-dist is a wrapper provided by ubuntu-dev-tools, not pbuilder itself. Moreover, ubuntu-dev-tools only Suggests: pbuilder, though at the same time python3-distutils is a pretty tiny package (that's also fairly useful) so adding that dependency as Recommends: rather than just Suggests: (to be clear, there isn't even a Suggests: currently) to try and ensure the wrapper works if you happen to have pbuilder installed might make sense. ** Package changed: pbuilder (Ubuntu) => ubuntu-dev-tools (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1936697 Title: Unlisted dependency To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools/+bug/1936697/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
