When the reproducible=+fixfilepath feature is enabled (either through
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS, or using a dpkg that enables this by default),
fuzzylite fails to build from source:

  
http://qa-logs.debian.net/2020/09/26.fixfilepath/fuzzylite_6.0+dfsg-2_unstable_fixfilepath.log


While the "fixfilepath" feature is not currently enabled by
dpkg-buildflags by default, it may become the default at some point in
the future, and can by triggered manually by setting
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=reproducible=+fixfilepath in the build environment. It
is also used in the tests.reproducible-builds.org infrastructure when
testing unstable and experimental.

More information about this issue is available at:

  
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/issues/unstable/ftbfs_due_to_f-file-prefix-map_issue.html


I have not identified the exact cause of this issue, but a common
trigger is test suites expecting __FILE__ to resolve to an absolute
path.

The attached patch works around this issue by disabling the fixfilepath
feature in debian/rules using DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS=-fixfilepath.


Thanks for maintaining fuzzylite!
