Bug#432657: ... buildd bug???

[Ludovic Brenta]

I think you're right: the buildds only build the arch-dependent
packages using dpkg-buildpackage -B.  So, the solution to this bug is
to either move texinfo th Build-Depends, or to not call it when
building monotone (as opposed to monotone-doc).

That would also explain why, when I built without -B, I did not get
any errors: dpkg-buildpackage took Build-Depends-Indep into account.

Bug#432657: ... buildd bug???

[Zack Weinberg]

texi2dvi is provided by the texinfo package, which is in the
Build-Depends-Indep list.  This might not be correct, but if it's
wrong, it's because of the use of makeinfo in building the main
monotone package; not because of the use of texi2dvi in building the
monotone-doc package.  The buildd invokes debian/rules build instead
of debian/rules build-arch, which means it ought to have installed the
Build-Depends-Indep, but it didn't.

Several more buildd's have since failed with the same error, so
clearly they are working as designed, but I don't know what to do
about it.
