Source: lyx
Version: 2.3.0~rc2-1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Hi,

lyx/experimental fails to build twice in a row, the package in unstable
probably has the same problem.
>From the attached log, from the second build:

[...]
   debian/rules override_dh_installdocs
make[1]: Entering directory '/build/lyx-2.3.0~rc2'
mkdir -p debian/lyx/usr/share/doc
ln -s lyx-common debian/lyx/usr/share/doc/lyx
mkdir -p debian/lyx-dbg/usr/share/doc
ln -s lyx debian/lyx-dbg/usr/share/doc/lyx-dbg
ln: failed to create symbolic link 'debian/lyx-dbg/usr/share/doc/lyx-dbg': File 
exists
debian/rules:62: recipe for target 'override_dh_installdocs' failed
make[1]: *** [override_dh_installdocs] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/build/lyx-2.3.0~rc2'
debian/rules:9: recipe for target 'binary' failed
make: *** [binary] Error 2

This looks like there are leftover commands for creating the
  debian/lyx-dbg/usr/share/doc/lyx-dbg -> lyx
symlink. Since the lyx-dbg package is no longer built, the temporary
debian/lyx-dbg staging directory is not cleaned up between the builds,
and the second build tries to create stuff that already exists there ...
