Hi Gianfranco, Good call, I missed that one - my pbuilders (created via git-pbuilder) all had it when I was building borgbackup. It's only "Recommended" by dpkg-dev, which itself is part of the build-essential set. So to be sure it's there, we should build-depend on fakeroot explicitly before we upload. Better safe than sorry. This may be a bug in git-pbuilder, that it *does* install Recommended packages - AFAIK the pbuilder's should only ever install hard depends, and ignore Recommended and Suggests. "aptitude why fakeroot" answers me: i borgbackup-build-deps Depends debhelper (>= 9) i A debhelper Depends dpkg-dev (>= 1.18.2~) i A dpkg-dev Recommends fakeroot ----- Uploading to delayed/2 should™ be fine, but just to ensure that the current version actually migrates to stretch, maybe make it delayed/3. Cheers, - Danny
