Subject: libzen: FTBFS when built with dpkg-buildpackage -A (dh_installdocs fails)

Date: Sun, 29 Nov 2015 20:25:05 +0000

Package: src:libzen
Version: 0.4.32-1
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:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry not to have a fix, as I am reporting many bugs similar to
this one. The common hints are:

* If the only architecture-independent packages are dummy transitional
ones and they were released with jessie, the easy fix is to drop them
now.

* When using "dh", it is allowed to use (independently)
optional targets override_dh_foo-arch and override_dh_foo-indep
(for several values of "foo").


Once that both "dpkg-buildpackage -A" and "dpkg-buildpackage -B" work
properly, the package would be suitable to be uploaded in source-only
form if you wish.

Thanks.

> debian/rules:32: recipe for target 'override_dh_installdocs' failed

Explanation: There is only one file in the pattern above:

debian/libzen0v5/usr/share/doc/libzen0v5/ReadMe.txt

but we are creating arch-independent packages only,
so debian/libzen0v5/[...] does not exist because libzen0v5
is arch-dependent.

The trivial fix is to override dh_installdocs only
when creating arch-dependent packages.

Patch follows.

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.
