Robert, yep; I've seen it's only used in the testsuite indeed; problem is that we actually want to run the testsuite during build, so that the build-deps need to be there. There is no concept of "optional build- deps" because package builds need to be reproducible.
So this build-dep loop needs bootstrapping whenever one is building sources from scratch, or for backports for instance; it's best when we can avoid circular build-dep loops. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/709696 Title: Build-dependency loop with python-fixtures -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
