--- Begin Message ---Package: debhelper Version: 7.0.8 Severity: wishlist File: /usr/bin/dh -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi maybe this is not exactly a bug, but I just want to know if there is some reasoning for current preference of Makefile > setup.py > Build.PL. The problem is that some Python modules come with simple Makefile, which allows some basic functionality, but does not necesarry all things which could be done through setup.py. In this case dh_auto_* blindly chooses to use this Makefile instead of setup.py. Have you considered having different preference of build systems to try? - -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://blog.cihar.com - -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (99, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages debhelper depends on: ii binutils 2.18.1~cvs20080103-4 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii dpkg-dev 1.14.19 package building tools for Debian ii file 4.24-2 Determines file type using "magic" ii html2text 1.3.2a-3 An advanced HTML to text converter ii man-db 2.5.2-1 on-line manual pager ii perl 5.10.0-10 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii po-debconf 1.0.13 manage translated Debconf template debhelper recommends no packages. - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFIMXHq3DVS6DbnVgQRApl0AKCUGul5hz4VGatU662nzQTHNxcMBwCfShr8 9G7bK5trlB9UcRi/t7Yncr0= =lPUO -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
