[Bug 730236] Re: alien 8.81 claims to build .deb but doesn't

2011-03-07 Thread Sam Brightman
In my case this was due to architecture incompatibility. debhelper changed in a way that prevents dh_listpackages from returning the incompatible architecture. It used to do so, so alien could build the package and you could then use ia32-libs etc. It should also not report success when doing

[Bug 730236] Re: alien 8.81 claims to build .deb but doesn't

2011-03-07 Thread Sam Brightman
I believe the new change to debhelper is buggy - it does not operate on all packages by default as claimed in the man page, and the -a switch was changed to depend on the build architecture. This seems illogical and not backwards compatible. However, alien should still report the failure properly.
