Package: coreutils Version: 8.21-1.2 Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer, here is the problem: $ fakeroot apt-get -b source coreutils [...] checking whether mknod can create fifo without root privileges... configure: error: in `/tmp/LB/coreutils-8.21': configure: error: you should not run configure as root (set FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE=1 in environment to bypass this check) See `config.log' for more details debian/rules:46: recipe for target 'configure-stamp' failed make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1 dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2 Build command 'cd coreutils-8.21 && dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc' failed. E: Child process failed So, how about setting FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE=1 in the environment of the build process ? -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Foreign Architectures: amd64 Kernel: Linux 3.14-2-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages coreutils depends on: ii libacl1 2.2.52-1 ii libattr1 1:2.4.47-1 ii libc6 2.19-7 ii libselinux1 2.3-1 coreutils recommends no packages. coreutils suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
