I've tested in a clean pbuilder chroot and svn-bp is fine with it's own dependencies. Then, when I use `debcheckout svn-buildpackage` and install it's build-dependencies, it builds itself fine without errors. > > The first commands svn-buildpackage tries are calls to subversion > > itself and that's probably the first place to check for something which > > is compiled. > > What should I run to check? Anything and everything. I can't tell you which ones because this problem only affects this one single machine. I also use svn-bp on various virtual environments for buildd operations, again without any errors. Test on your main system rather than a new box, test on someone else's virtual box, test in chroots; there's almost nothing we can do at this end until there is a way to reproduce the problem. If it only persists on this one system, the chances of identifying the actual problem approach zero. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
