Source: prima Version: 1.28-1.2 Severity: important User: debian-p...@lists.debian.org Usertags: perl-5.20-transition
Starting with version 5.20.0 (currently in experimental), the Debian perl package is changing the "vendorarch" library paths (currently /usr/lib/perl5) to include the multiarch triplet and the perl version. See #748380 for details. For this to work, packages containing binary perl modules need to migrate from using the hardcoded /usr/lib/perl5 directory to the value of the $Config{vendorarch} variable, as defined in the 'Config' module. This package fails to build with perl_5.20.0-1 from experimental: # Fix the messed up paths # cd /«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/libprima-perl && \ mkdir -p usr/share/doc/prima usr/lib/perl5 usr/share/perl5/Prima/VB && \ mv local/lib/perl/*/Prima/*.pod usr/share/perl5/Prima/ && \ mv local/lib/perl/*/Prima/*.gif usr/share/perl5/Prima/ && \ mv local/lib/perl/*/Prima/VB/*.gif usr/share/perl5/Prima/VB/ && \ mv local/lib/perl/*/* usr/lib/perl5/ && \ mv bin usr/ && \ mv usr/lib/perl5/man usr/share/ && \ mv usr/lib/perl5/Prima/tutorial usr/share/doc/prima/ && \ mv usr/lib/perl5/Prima/examples usr/share/doc/prima/ && \ mv usr/lib/perl5/Prima/VB/examples usr/share/doc/prima/examples/VB mv: cannot stat 'local/lib/perl/*/Prima/*.pod': No such file or directory make: *** [install] Error 1 debian/rules:54: recipe for target 'install' failed dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary-arch gave error exit status 2 (I see that Makefile.PL is, despite the name, not based on ExtUtils::MakeMaker but rather a custom implementation, and sadly doesn't support INSTALLDIRS=vendor. Wow.)
