Subject: sshuttle package in stretch/sid builds only documentation, no executable

Date: Fri, 06 May 2016 20:16:09 -0400

Package: sshuttle
Version: 0.78.0-1~bpo8+1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

I tried to make a backport of sshuttle for jessie using stretch sources. I did
the usual package build steps:

apt-get source sshuttle
cd sshuttle-0.78.0/
dch --bpo
sudo apt-get build-dep sshuttle
debuild -sa -uc -us

The package built without any fatal errors and produced a deb. The following is
the build output:

Upon installing the deb, I discovered that the sshuttle executable was missing.
The following shows that only documentation and a few config files exist in the
built deb:

This seems to be an issue with your backporting. Because the package
builds fine on Debian Sid.

Maybe this line from debian/control needs to be changed for
backporting, too:

  X-Python3-Version: >= 3.5

You are correct. I have Python 3.4 installed. Rebuilding on a system with Python 3.5 worked as expected. Apparently if the X-Python-Version is not satisfied, the build gives no fatal errors and appears to work, while not actually building the package properly. But that's a bug for the build system, not this package.

Thanks for the confirmation.

Indeed. Not sure which part of the buildsystem is the culprit here.
Maybe it's also partially wanted if e.g. multiple python versions are
listed, but it shouldn't bail out if not all of them can be found.

Anyways, closing this bug report against sshuttle now.
