Hi,
For some reason, debhelper.mk has a dh_clean call in
common-install-prehook::. This seems to be completely spurious and I
do not understand the need for such a call. What I did see is that it
causes gtk2-engines to be built twice; the sequence of events is as
follow:
dpkg-buildpackage calls debian/rules build
build depends on a target which calls ./configure from debian/tmp/x11 if
config.status is missing
./configure creates config.status
build depends on a target which calls make from debian/tmp/x11
make builds the binaries
dpkg-buildpackage calls debian/rules binary
binary depends on common-install-prehook-impl which calls dh_clean
dh_clean removes debian/tmp/x11
binary depends on a target which calls ./configure from debian/tmp/x11 if
config.status is missing
./configure creates config.status again
I think you can reproduce this with:
DEB_BUILDDIR := debian/tmp/build
BTW, gtk2-engines is currently built in two flavors, so 4 ./configure +
make, but I don't think this is connected.
Since this dh_clean is as old as the first debhelper.mk that CVS knows
about, I think it might simply be superfluous. :)
Bye,
