--- Begin Message ---Source: python2.7 Version: 2.7.8-1 Severity: wishlist Today I spend fair bit of time trying to re-build package "python2.7" from source. I followed the usual procedure apt-get source python2.7 apt-get build-dep python2.7 debuild -b -j4 but it failed on my machine and in "pbuilder". Luckily Matthias gave me a clue: debian/rules patch but package FTBFS until I dropped "-j4" to disable parallel build. I'd like to suggest maintainer(s) to document all what's necessary to build the package from source in "debian/README.source". When deviations from obvious build procedure are necessary it's best to briefly describe them. It saves time, really. As DD I'm fairly competent with building Debian packages but on this instance frustration of failing (supposedly straightforward) re-build could be avoided. Unless parallel build can be fixed I would also add a note about expected parallel build failures/incompatibility. Error messages that I was getting with "-j4" were hard to attribute to parallel build. Thanks. -- Cheers, Dmitry Smirnov GPG key : 4096R/53968D1B
