Package: mira Version: 4.9.6-4 Tags: patch When building concurrently, the doc/docbook/*_part.html files can fail to generate. The reason is - as far as I can tell, that the %_part.html rule in doc/docbook/Makefile.in doesn't list versionfile as a dependency, but several of the _part.xml files actually depend on the file to be both present and parsable. The error actually indicates the "could not load versionfile" error - It is unclear though if it is not present or not completely generated. But with "make -j 8", this is fails reproducibly (not always, but very often). Changing Makefile.am as in the attached patch seems to fix this.
Site note: Strictly speaking, most rules should also have a dependency on the copyright file, as the output would change if the copyrightfile changes. But since there is no rule to re-generate that file and no generated files are shipped with the package, that seems minor. Here is the snippet from the build log: make[2]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/doc' Making all in docbook make[3]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/doc/docbook' Making versionfile Making .html out of _part.xml chap_bitsandpieces_part.html Making .html out of _part.xml chap_mirautils_part.html Making .html out of _part.xml chap_est_part.html Making .html out of _part.xml chap_faq_part.html Making .html out of _part.xml chap_hard_part.html Making .html out of _part.xml chap_logfiles_part.html Making .html out of _part.xml chap_maf_part.html versionfile:3: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found ^ chap_bitsandpieces_part.xml:5: element include: XInclude error : could not load versionfile, and no fallback was found Making .html out of _part.xml chap_reference_part.html versionfile:3: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found ^ chap_est_part.xml:5: element include: XInclude error : could not load versionfile, and no fallback was found make[3]: *** [Makefile:484: chap_bitsandpieces_part.html] Error 6 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[3]: *** [Makefile:484: chap_est_part.html] Error 6 make[3]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/doc/docbook' make[2]: *** [Makefile:381: all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/doc' dh_auto_build: error: cd doc && make -j8 "INSTALL=install --strip-program=true" returned exit code 2 make[1]: *** [debian/rules:37: override_dh_auto_build-indep] Error 25 make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' make: *** [debian/rules:14: build] Error 2
