Source: ncurses Version: 5.9-10 Today I tried to crossbuild git master, and while compilation worked fine, it failed in the install target of debian/rules:
,---- | # Compile Debian-specific terminfo entries before copying files | # into their packages. Hurd uses gsbom/grbom, so pass -x to tic. | Build environment version mismatch for tic! | make: *** [install] Error 1 | dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary-arch gave error exit status 2 `---- The tic version check has been there since ncurses 5.4-5 when cross-build support was added, but I don't know why. Here is the relevant excerpt from debian/rules: ,---- | @build_ver=`sed -n -e \ | 's/^.*NCURSES_VERSION_STRING \"\(.*\)\"$$/\1/p' \ | obj/include/ncurses_cfg.h`; \ | if [ "$$build_ver" != `tic -V | sed 's/^.* //'` ]; then \ | echo "Build environment version mismatch for tic!"; \ | exit 1; \ | fi `---- Unless somebody sees a good reason for this test, I'll probably just take it out, since any halfway recent tic version in Debian should be sufficient to compile debian/*.ti. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
