Package: propellor Version: 5.10.2-2 Severity: grave Tags: upstream Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, While trying to test propellor on a Debian Testing system, I discovered my changes were not taking effect. Eventually I discovered that the haskell build system was writing the new binary into ./dist- newstyle/build/x86_64-linux/ghc-8.8.3/propellor-5.10.2/x/propellor/build/propellor/propellor While Bootstrap.hs was assuing the binary would be built in dist/build/propellor-config/propellor-config See https://propellor.branchable.com/forum/Bootstrapping_with_Cabal_on_Archlinux_fails/ Which also includes a report from someone else about Propellor not working on Debian Testing. There appear to be patches in 5.11, but they're spread out over several commits, and I'm not sure which ones to pull. I tried to just build 5.11, but export CABAL=./Setup breaks the build, the makefile assumes ./Setup sdist -o - will output a compressed stream, but the Setup file built in an unstable schroot doesn't support that feature. Thanks Diane -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing-debug APT policy: (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'oldstable-debug'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (110, 'unstable'), (100, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.7.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages propellor depends on: ii cabal-install 3.0.0.0-3 ii ghc [libghc-transformers-dev] 8.8.3-3 ii git 1:2.28.0-1 ii libc6 2.30-4 ii libffi7 3.3-4 ii libghc-ansi-terminal-dev 0.10.3-1 ii libghc-async-dev 2.2.2-2 ii libghc-exceptions-dev 0.10.4-1 ii libghc-hashable-dev 1.3.0.0-2 ii libghc-hslogger-dev 1.3.1.0-1 ii libghc-ifelse-dev 0.85-16 pn libghc-mtl-dev <none> ii libghc-network-dev 3.1.1.1-1 ii libghc-propellor-dev 5.10.2-2 ii libghc-split-dev 0.2.3.4-1 pn libghc-text-dev <none> ii libghc-type-errors-dev 0.2.0.0-3 ii libghc-unix-compat-dev 0.5.2-2 ii libgmp10 2:6.2.0+dfsg-6 propellor recommends no packages. propellor suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
