Source: wget2 Version: 1.99.1-2 Severity: serious Tags: ftbfs wget2 fails to build from source in unstable. A build ends with:
| /bin/bash /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/build-aux/missing makeinfo --force -o ./wget2.info ./wget2.texi | /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/build-aux/missing: line 81: makeinfo: command not found | WARNING: 'makeinfo' is missing on your system. | You should only need it if you modified a '.texi' file, or | any other file indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. | You might want to install the Texinfo package: | <http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/> | The spurious makeinfo call might also be the consequence of | using a buggy 'make' (AIX, DU, IRIX), in which case you might | want to install GNU make: | <http://www.gnu.org/software/make/> | make[3]: *** [Makefile:1719: wget2.stamp] Error 127 | make[3]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/docs' | make[2]: *** [Makefile:1579: all-recursive] Error 1 | make[2]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' | make[1]: *** [Makefile:1488: all] Error 2 | make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' | make: *** [debian/rules:43: build-stamp] Error 2 | dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build subprocess returned exit status 2 This is also reproduced by crossqa, but not yet reproduced by reproducible builds, so it likely is a fairly recent regression. http://crossqa.debian.net/build/wget2_1.99.1-2_armel_20200115220118.log I suppose that this is a result of gnulib having dropped its dependency on texinfo, so now wget2 needs to depend on texinfo itself.
