Package: src:pirs
Version: 2.0.2+dfsg-2
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
Dear maintainer:
I tried to build this package in stretch with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(which is what the "Arch: all" autobuilder would do to build it)
but it failed:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This happens because debian/pirs/[...] does not exist, as we are creating
arch-independent packages only.
Tha (trivial) patch below should probably work, but I would use
debian/pirs.docs instead to have an even shorter debian/rules.
Please consider uploading in source-only form as soon as you can
(i.e. after the first upload, where source-only uploads are not
allowed yet). That way we will prevent bugs like this one to propagate
to testing and also we will have official build logs available here:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=pirs
Thanks.
