Package: bmake Version: 20200710-11 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
in the current default configuration of the Debian package, upstream bmake files are used, but unlike installation of bmake from source, symlinks from bsd.*.mk to *.mk are not present in the default mk-files directory. My use case is simple programs using bsd.prog.mk, which are meant to succeed building with the same Makefile on different BSDs as well as non-BSD systems with bmake, and those programs don't care much about which brand of mk-files are used as long as the simple use case is supported. Since the symlinks are not present, .include <bsd.prog.mk> with 'bmake' fails. Please ship the bsd.*.mk symlinks in /usr/share/bmake/mk-bmake. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/32 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages bmake depends on: ii libc6 2.31-11 bmake recommends no packages. bmake suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- Lauri Tirkkonen | lotheac @ IRCnet
