Hello Hans Ulrich,
Thanks for your bug report, test, and proposed patch.
I agree that this is a bug. The patch has a couple of issues
(dirname is not portable, and the approach falls down with a
subpackage inside a subpackage). But also I think we could just
do things a bit simpler: with a package tree, we only build one
tarball, so really there needs to be only one check, namely of
the outermost package. (Of course this would be a small change
of semantics).
WDYT of this?
Cheers,
Ralf
