Package: libswf-perl
Version: 1:0.3.0-7
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Hi,

the dh_strip call in your package is failing when building with fakeroot:

 strip: unable to copy file 'debian/libswf-perl/usr/lib/perl5/auto/SWF/SWF.so' 
reason: Permission denied
 strip: unable to copy file 
'debian/libswf-perl/usr/lib/perl5/auto/SWF/include/libming.a' reason: 
Permission denied

When building with sudo, dh_strip succeeds and as a side effect overrides
the effects of the libswf-perl 'manual' strip call earlier.

As a result, those architectures that are built with sudo (alpha, mips
and mipsel) are stripped differently from the rest (which are built with
fakeroot). This can be seen from the package sizes on packages.debian.org
[1].

A proposed fix is to call dh_fixperms before dh_strip.
