Package: debhelper Version: 10.4 Severity: normal Hi,
I just tried debhelper 10.4 from experimental which implements dh_install --list/fail-missing via the new dh_missing tool. I don't use dh_missing directly yet, but rely on the backwards compat support. My debian/rules contains override_dh_install: dh_install -X.la --list-missing Apparently the -X.la is ignored though and dh_missing still complains about the libtool .la files: debian/rules override_dh_install make[1]: Verzeichnis „/home/michael/debian/build-area/network-manager-1.8.0“ wird betreten dh_install -X.la --list-missing dh_install: Please use dh_missing --list-missing/--fail-missing instead dh_install: This feature will be removed in compat 11. dh_missing: usr/lib/pppd/2.4.7/nm-pppd-plugin.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnm-util.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnm-glib.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnm-glib-vpn.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnm.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-device-plugin-bluetooth.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-device-plugin-team.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-settings-plugin-ibft.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-settings-plugin-ifupdown.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-device-plugin-wifi.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-wwan.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-device-plugin-wwan.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-device-plugin-adsl.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-ppp-plugin.la exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: usr/share/doc/NetworkManager/examples/server.conf exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere The following debhelper tools have reported what they installed (with files per package) * dh_install: gir1.2-networkmanager-1.0 (2), gir1.2-nm-1.0 (1), libnm-dev (7), libnm-glib-dev (36), libnm-glib-vpn-dev (6), libnm-glib-vpn1 (2), libnm-glib4 (2), libnm-util-dev (36), libnm-util2 (2), libnm0 (2), network-manager (36), network-manager-config-connectivity-debian (1), network-manager-dev (7) If the missing files are installed by another tool, please file a bug against it. Be sure to test with dpkg-buildpackage -A/-B as the results may vary when only a subset is built For a short-term work-around: Add the files to debian/not-installed I also note, that usr/share/doc/NetworkManager/examples/server.conf is actually installed via debian/network-manager.examples, which contains: debian/tmp/usr/share/doc/NetworkManager/examples/server.conf I assume dh_installexamples is simply not updated yet to support the new dh_missing functionality?
