Package: vim Version: 1:7.1-241+1 Severity: normal Tags: patch The debian/rules shipped with the vim package executes 'quilt' command in such manner that user's ~/.quiltrc is included. Also, user may have set QUILT_PATCHES variable to a non-default value. These may cause the vim package to not build correctly in user's environment.
I suggest executing the 'quilt' command so that it defines the patches directory explicitly and ignores the possible ~/.quiltrc file. A patch is attached to fix this.
This patch changes quilt behaviour in debian/rules so that quilt doesn't use user's default ~/.quiltrc file. It may contain settings which prevent quilt from working correctly with vim package. diff -ur vim-7.1.orig/debian/rules vim-7.1/debian/rules --- vim-7.1.orig/debian/rules 2008-02-03 10:51:40.151208944 +0200 +++ vim-7.1/debian/rules 2008-02-03 10:53:27.710465492 +0200 @@ -141,6 +141,8 @@ DOT_IN_DEPS += debian/vim-runtime.links DOT_IN_DEPS += debian/runtime/debian.vim +QUILT = QUILT_PATCHES=patches quilt --quiltrc=/dev/null + # nothing to do per default all: @@ -153,7 +155,7 @@ echo "applying upstream patch: $$f" ;\ cat upstream/patches/$$f | patch -s -d$(SRCDIR) -p0 ;\ done - quilt push -a || test $$? = 2 + $(QUILT) push -a || test $$? = 2 @echo "replacing upstream po files with our own" cp $(wildcard runtime/lang/po/*) vim/src/po touch $@ @@ -175,7 +177,7 @@ dh_testroot rm -f extract-stamp* build-stamp* install-stamp* configure-stamp* rm -f debian/helpztags.1 - quilt pop -a || test $$? = 2 + $(QUILT) pop -a || test $$? = 2 rm -rf .pc rm -rf $(SRCDIR) rm -rf debian/policy/vim-policy.html
