Package: r-base-dev Severity: normal Hi,
I tried to build an R package using include /usr/share/R/debian/r-cran.mk while at the same time applying some patches using source format 3.0 (quilt). This resulted in dpkg-source: info: building r-other-mott-happy in r-other-mott-happy_2.1-6.dsc debian/rules build /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/simple-patchsys.mk:31: WARNING: simple-patchsys.mk is deprecated - please use source format 3.0 (quilt) instead test -x debian/rules mkdir -p "." /usr/bin/make -f debian/rules reverse-config make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/buildd/r-other-mott-happy-2.1' /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/simple-patchsys.mk:31: WARNING: simple-patchsys.mk is deprecated - please use source format 3.0 (quilt) instead make[1]: Nothing to be done for `reverse-config'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/buildd/r-other-mott-happy-2.1' if [ "debian/stamp-patched" = "reverse-patches" ]; then rm -f debian/stamp-patched; fi patches: debian/patches/ELT_String.patch debian/patches/happyMatrices.patch Trying patch debian/patches/ELT_String.patch at level 1 ... 0 ... 2 ... failure. make: *** [debian/stamp-patched] Error 1 dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2 Sorry, this packaging is currently only in SVN so you can not test but I assume you can perfectly reconstruct the situation with any R package that uses source format 3.0 (quilt). If not I'd be happy to provide some example code. Kind regards and thanks for providing r-cran.mk Andreas. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.3 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.36-xenU-4814-i386 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
