Package: debhelper Version: 11.2.1 Severity: normal Hi,
I've run into this with src:wine: $ grep Rules debian/control* debian/control:Rules-Requires-Root: no debian/control.in:Rules-Requires-Root: no $ quilt push -a $ ./debian/rules binary [...] make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/jens/development/wine/wine/wine/server' Wine build complete. make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/jens/development/wine/wine/wine' dh_auto_test create-stamp debian/debhelper-build-stamp dh_testroot dh_testroot: You must run this as root (or use fakeroot). debian/rules:107: recipe for target 'binary' failed make: *** [binary] Error 255 So Wine indeed builds fine without (fake)root, but dh_testroot returns false, while according to dh_testroot(1) it should return successfully. debuild and buildd build the package just fine (but I guess they just still use fakeroot). Am I doing something wrong here? Besides that, shouldn't the dh_testroot check be earlier in the dh sequence to really make sense? I set R³: debian/control.in here: https://salsa.debian.org/wine-team/wine/commit/b32a716ee4255270539d4f770aa63404cf2451a2 Greets jre --- System information. --- Architecture: Kernel: Linux 4.16.0-1-amd64 Debian Release: buster/sid 990 testing hope 990 testing dl.winehq.org 500 unstable-debug hope 500 unstable hope 500 testing-debug hope 100 experimental hope 1 experimental-debug hope --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed ========================================-+-============= autotools-dev | 20180224.1 dh-autoreconf (>= 17~) | 17 dh-strip-nondeterminism (>= 0.028~) | 0.041-1 dpkg (>= 1.18.0~) | 1.19.0.5+b1 dpkg-dev (>= 1.18.2~) | 1.19.0.5 file (>= 3.23) | 1:5.33-2 libdpkg-perl (>= 1.17.14) | 1.19.0.5 man-db | 2.8.3-2 po-debconf | 1.0.20 perl | 5.26.2-3 Package's Recommends field is empty.
