Package: quilt Version: 0.48-7 Severity: normal
Having reported the bug, I took time to look after it. It apears that the text of the manpage (and some other files) is generated by running the quilt -h command. So I thought the variable QUILT_PATCHES was set in some way... well of course it is, but not before launching quilt. It's actually set in patchfns by looking into the $QUILT_PC/.quilt_patches file. So all what was needed was to change QUILT_PC to avoid this to happend when generating the docs ;) I did set it to some unexisting directory in the target 'reference' of the makefile here is the patch: diff -au quilt-0.48.orig/Makefile.in quilt-0.48/Makefile.in --- quilt-0.48.orig/Makefile.in 2010-06-17 23:22:32.000000000 +0200 +++ quilt-0.48/Makefile.in 2010-06-18 00:42:35.000000000 +0200 @@ -214,7 +214,7 @@ for i in $(QUILT); \ do \ echo; \ - quilt $$i -h; \ + QUILT_PC=.fake_pc quilt $$i -h; \ echo; \ done | \ $(SED) -e 's/\$$EDITOR ([^)]*)/$$EDITOR/' \ -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages quilt depends on: ii bzip2 1.0.5-4 high-quality block-sorting file co ii diffstat 1.47-1 produces graph of changes introduc ii gettext 0.17-11 GNU Internationalization utilities ii patch 2.6-2 Apply a diff file to an original quilt recommends no packages.
