Package: apq
Version: 3.2.0-2
Severity: important
Dear maintainer:
While building this package with "dpkg-buildpackage -A", I noticed that
the build system does not check for errors as required by Policy 4.6
(this is a policy "must" directive).
Compare the following build logs.
In the first one, some kind of error happened:
I can't find the format file `pdflatex.fmt'!
Error while building PDF file
but the build continued anyway and created an incorrect package.
This is easy to check by doing this:
$ grep manual.pdf.gz apq_3.2.0-2_amd64-20160227-0231
[ no output ]
$ grep manual.pdf.gz apq_3.2.0-2_amd64-20160307-1400
-rw-r--r-- root/root 613538 2016-03-07 14:01
./usr/share/doc/libapq-doc/manual.pdf.gz
The attached patch should probably fix this bug, by not hiding the
errors when they happen.
Thanks.
