Note that the dpkg check allows a package to build-depends on coreutils- from-gnu instead of coreutis-from-uutils (it only injects a build depends for coreutils-from-uutils when no coreutils-from-gnu one is present).
However, while this works, you cannot build those packages in a normal builder: The coreutils-from-uutils package is protected, and can't be removed automatically to install coreutils-from-gnu - so this cannot be used to build official Ubuntu packages with GNU coreutils (yet?). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2147638 Title: Transition coreutils-from-uutils requirement from build-essential to dpkg-buildpackage runtime check To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/build-essential/+bug/2147638/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
