Bug#457501: lintian: quilt needed in clean target
Bernd Zeimetz [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: lintian already will allow (and even require) quilt to be in Build-Depends because of this. This looks like a specific problem with lintian's understanding of this package, but cython doesn't appear to be in the archive, so I can't check what's going on with it. It just went trough new ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/cython/ I finally had a chance to look at this, and the problem was that Lintian didn't correctly handle double-colon rules. (It thought the rule was clean: instead of clean and hence didn't notice that quilt was called from clean.) This will be fixed in the next version. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#457501: lintian: quilt needed in clean target
Package: lintian Version: 1.23.41 Severity: minor As quilt is used to deapply patches in the clean target usually, lintian should not suggest to move it to build-deps-indep while building an arch:all package. Just one random example: I: cython source: build-depends-without-arch-dep quilt Thanks, Bernd -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

How is the debian/rules file written? lintian looks for both the include of the quilt makefile fragment and for calling quilt explicitly during the clean target. If you have any specific packages that have this problem that I can look at, that would be greatly appreciated. lintian should already be handling this correctly and there isn't any general fix that I know how to apply without more details. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I think the problem is that debian/rules is written using cdbs and does not use /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/patchsys-quilt.mk, but handles the quilt manually instead. I'll ask the maintainer if he really needs to do that for some reason, or if using patchsys-quilt.mk instead would be fine for him. So I'm not really sure if this bugreport was unnecessary noise, or if lintian should indeed not complain here. Probably it would make sense to check the clean: and clean:: targets in debian/rules -- Bernd Zeimetz [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bzed.de/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
