Package: python-libhamlib2 Version: 1.2.6.2-4 Severity: serious Justification: Python policy, FHS
Hi,
your package doesn’t conform to the python policy; it is prone to expose
serious crashes at the time the python version changes.
Currently it does this horrible stuff:
mv $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp/usr/lib/_Hamlib.so
$(CURDIR)/debian/python-libhamlib2/usr/share/python-support/python-libhamlib2
You don’t need to move files by hand to the python-support directory,
and you *must* not put architecture-dependent files in /usr/share.
I see two issues here:
* The python module is built in /usr/lib instead
of /usr/lib/python2.X/site-packages; this is probably an
upstream issue but you can work around it without patching.
* The Debian build process only builds the package for one python
version; this way the module built for python2.4 will not work
with python2.5. You must loop over the supported python versions
to build the module for each of them, and install it in each of
the corresponding /usr/lib/python2.X/site-packages directories.
There are examples of how to do that in the python-support documentation
and on the wiki. If you need help, please don’t hesitate to ask for a
patch.
After doing that, you will be able to simply:
mv $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp/usr/lib/python*
$(CURDIR)/debian/python-libhamlib2/usr/lib/
and dh_pysupport/dh_pycentral will take care of the rest (including
putting the files in specific directories).
Cheers,
