Package: libtext-diff-perl Version: 0.35-3 Severity: important Tags: patch Justification: fails to build from source
When building under sbuild the directory name isn't the default that dpkg-source -x would pick. In cases like that (but really any where the directory name is changed) the package fails to build correctly (it silently leaves out the actual perl module files but gives no error anything went wrong). The fix is to get the package name from the control file instead using something like: PACKAGE=`grep Package: debian/control | sed -e "s/.*: *//"` With this change, it builds perfectly even if the directory is named doggy-123. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libtext-diff-perl depends on: ii libalgorithm-diff-perl 1.19.02-1 a perl library for finding Longest ii perl 5.10.0-19lenny2 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction libtext-diff-perl recommends no packages. libtext-diff-perl suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
