Package: sbuild Version: 0.88.5 Severity: minor Hi. When building packages for bookworm I see this in the build log, which was not shown before:
E: Failed to execute “dpkg-buildtree”: No such file or directory Then there is a step called "Install fakeroot" which does nothing because I already had fakeroot installed. Apparently dpkg-buildtree is tried first and then fakeroot is installed after checking that it was not available, so it would seem that the error message is not a "real" error. I wonder if it would be possible to check for “dpkg-buildtree” in a more silent way. Or maybe such new algorithm could be applied only if dpkg >= some-version. (Manpage says dpkg-buildtree was introduced in dpkg 1.22.3 and is-rootless was introduced in dpkg 1.22.1). While we are at it: Given that sbuild now seems to install fakeroot when it's required to build the package (i.e. I guess that when the package has "rules-requires-root: binary-targets"), can I consider a serious bug if the package tries to use fakeroot explicitly without a build-depends? Thanks.
