Subject: mysqmail: FTBFS when built with dpkg-buildpackage -A (no binary artifacts)

Date: Tue, 24 Nov 2015 11:17:56 +0000

Package: src:mysqmail
Version: 0.4.9-10.1
User: sanvila@debian.org
Usertags: binary-indep
Severity: important

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(i.e. only architecture-independent packages), and it failed:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
 fakeroot debian/rules binary-indep
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_clean -k
dh_clean: dh_clean -k is deprecated; use dh_prep instead

 dpkg-genchanges -A >../mysqmail_0.4.9-10.1_all.changes
dpkg-genchanges: warning: unknown information field 'Dm-Upload-Allowed' in input data in general section of control info file
dpkg-genchanges: error: binary build with no binary artifacts found; cannot distribute
dpkg-buildpackage: error: dpkg-genchanges gave error exit status 2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This usually happens because there is a binary-indep target in debian/rules
which is either empty or does not do anything useful.

If all the arch-independent packages are dummy transitional packages released with jessie,
the easy fix is to drop them now. If not, debian/rules should be modified so that the
binary-indep target generates the architecture independent packages (and only those).

After checking that both "dpkg-buildpackage -A" and "dpkg-buildpackage -B" work
properly, this package will be suitable to be uploaded in source-only form if you wish
(I recommend that you try it).

Thanks.

tags 805952 + patch
thanks

This package is simple enough that switching to dh would not be too
difficult. That would probably fix the bug automatically.

In the meantime, I attach a trivial patch. This is just the result of
duplicating every dh_* call to binary-indep (except for dh_testroot
and dh_testdir which I consider useless, as dpkg-buildpackage already
takes care of being in the right directory and being root when needed).

Thanks.

Greetings.

I have the ok from the Release Managers to consider this issue as RC
for stretch. I'm going to wait at least one week before raising
this to "serious".

There is a patch available for this bug. If you need someone to make
an upload, please ask for a sponsor in debian-mentors.

Thanks.
