I don't know wanna-build but this timestamp seems to be architecture specific (I see "powerpc" in your paste above)? Instead, sbuild should be called with the same input timestamp on all architectures when an nmu is to be built. Thanks! cheers, josch signature.asc Description: signature

Bug#846512: ITP: dijitso -- distributed just-in-time building of shared libraries
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Johannes Ring X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org,debian-science-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org * Package name: dijitso Version: 2016.2.0 Upstream Author: Martin Sandve Alnæs * URL: https://fenicsproject.org * License: LGPL-3+ Programming Lang: Python Description: distributed just-in-time building of shared libraries Dijitso was written to improve a core component of the FEniCS framework, namely the just in time compilation of C++ code that is generated from Python modules, but is only called from within a C++ library, and thus do not need wrapping in a nice Python interface. The main approach of dijitso is to use ctypes to import the dynamic shared library directly with no attempt at wrapping it in a Python interface. As long as the compiled code can provide a simple factory function to a class implementing a predefined C++ interface, there is no limit to the complexity of that interface as long as it is only called from C++ code, If you want a Python interface to your generated code, dijitso is probably not the answer. Although dijitso serves a very specific role within the FEniCS project, it does not depend on other FEniCS components. The parallel support depends on the mpi4py interface, although mpi4py is not actually imported within the dijitso module so it would be possible to mock the communicator object with a similar interface. As of FEniCS version 2016.2.0, dijitso is now a required component for FFC and DOLFIN. Adding dijitso to Debian is therefore essential for upgrading the existing FEniCS packages in Debian to the 2016.2.0 release. The package will be maintained in Debian Science Team's Git repository.

Correct way to detect JAR dependencies
Hi! I'm upstream developer for zeroc-ice, in one of the packages build from this source zeroc-icegridgui, a bug has been reported regarding missing JAR dependencies (Bug#846498). The package in question uses java:depends but that seems to not work here or maybe is not being used correctly: https://github.com/zeroc-ice/ice-debian-packaging/blob/3.6/debian/control#L290-L293 dpkg produces a warning dpkg-gencontrol: warning: Depends field of package zeroc-icegridgui: unknown substitution variable ${java:Depends} What is the correct way to declare the dependencies for JARs include in separate packages?
