Package: debhelper Version: 10.10.6 Severity: grave Dear Maintainer,
my recent upload of yara/3.7.0-3, using debhelper/10.10.6, failed in the autobuilders[1], here are the last few lines before the failure: ,---- | make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' | dh_installman -a | dh_lintian -a | dh_perl -a | dh_link -a | dh_strip_nondeterminism -a | dh_compress -a | dh_fixperms -a | dh_missing -a | dh_strip -a | dh_makeshlibs -a | dh_shlibdeps -a | dh_installdeb -a | dh_gencontrol -a | dh_md5sums -a | dh_builddeb -a | Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at /usr/bin/dh_builddeb line 134. | dpkg-deb: building package 'libyara3' in '../libyara3_3.7.0-3_amd64.deb'. | dpkg-deb: building package 'yara' in '../yara_3.7.0-3_amd64.deb'. | dpkg-deb: building package 'libyara-dev' in '../libyara-dev_3.7.0-3_amd64.deb'. | dh_builddeb: Aborting due to earlier error | debian/rules:5: recipe for target 'binary-arch' failed | make: *** [binary-arch] Error 2 | dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary-arch subprocess returned exit status 2 `---- Previous builds using debhelper/10.10.5, had gone fine. I have taken the following steps to narrow the problem down to the 10.10.6 upgrade: 1. Build yara/3.7.0-3 on a not-quite-up-to-date Debian/unstable amd64 environment, including debhelper/10.10.5. This works fine. 2. Upgrade debhelper to 10.10.6. 3. Rebuild yara/3.7.0-3. This reproduces the failure from the build log above.
