Package: debhelper
Version: 12.7
Severity: important
gnubg 1.06.002-2 no longer builds with the latest debhelper, producing the
following error message:
dh_installman
dh_installman: mv debian/gnubg/usr/share/man/man6/makeweights.6.gz.dh-new
debian/gnubg/usr/share/man/man6/makeweights.6: No such file or directory

dh_installman: mv debian/gnubg/usr/share/man/man6/makehyper.6.gz.dh-new
debian/gnubg/usr/share/man/man6/makehyper.6: No such file or directory
dh_installman: Aborting due to earlier error
I strongly suspect that this is a bug introduced in 12.7 with the change
to use man-recode. The slightly unusual thing about this package is that
the upstream make install logic installs the man pages compressed, so
they're already compressed when dh_installman finds them and it just tries
to convert the character set. My guess is that the previous man command
used for this handles compressed man pages transparently, but man-recode
does not.
This no longer affects gnubg since I worked around it in debian/rules in
the new version I just uploaded, but I suspect this will make other packages
FTBFS.
