Source: aegisub
Version: 3.2.2+dfsg-2
Severity: serious

Hi,

We have noticed that aegisub is unfortunately not binNMU safe, when we
tried to rebuild it as a part of the GCC-5 transition.  The issue is
caused by:

"""
override_dh_installdocs:
        dh_installdocs --link-doc=aegisub
"""

This statement makes aegisub-l10n depend strictly on
aegisub (= ${binary:Version}), which is required to ensure the correct
copyright file is always present.  Unfortunately, it also makes the
result not binNMU safe since aegisub-l10n is an arch:all package and
aegisub is an arch:any package.

Please either drop the link doc or change the above into something
like:

"""
override_dh_installdocs:
        dh_installdocs -i
        dh_installdocs --remaining --link-doc=aegisub
"""

Regardless of how you solve it, please keep in mind that you will have
to do a "symlink_to_dir" transition.  I recommend that you use
dpkg-maintscript-helper for that (possibly via dh_installdeb's
maintscript file).

Thanks,
~Niels
