Source: srtp Version: 1.4.4~dfsg-7 Severity: normal Please do not unconditionally build documenttion package (arch:all) when it is not requested. This would save both machine and human time.
Use case 1) Autobuilders call dpkg-buildpackage -B, no need to waste their time with dragging and installing useless build-depends Use case 2) Developer debugging the code is hardly interested in pulling and installing useless build-depends, as well as building the srtp-docs (arch:all) package every now and then. These should go to Build-Depends-Indep: doxygen-latex | doxygen, doxygen-latex | texlive-latex-recommended, texlive-fonts-recommended Moving them to -Indep led to the following error: make[2]: Entering directory /home/deb/debian/srtp-1.4.4~dfsg/doc' sed 's/LIBSRTPVERSION/1.4.4/' header.template > header.tex doxygen make[2]: doxygen: Command not found make[2]: *** [libsrtpdoc] Error 127 make[2]: Leaving directory /home/deb/debian/srtp-1.4.4~dfsg/doc' make[1]: *** [libsrtpdoc] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory /home/deb/debian/srtp-1.4.4~dfsg' make: *** [build/srtp-docs] Error 2 dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2 It is probably not a good idea to have alternatives listed in build dependencies, this makes things less reproducible. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.37-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
