Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.16.1.2 Severity: wishlist File: /usr/bin/dpkg-buildpackage
Dear Maintainer,
When I setup a poor man wanna-buildd with reprepro+rebuildd+sbuild, I
saw that "dpkg-buildpackage -A" produce a ".changes" named
"<PACKAGE>_<VERSION>_<arch>.changes"
In my poor man setup, I upload source to reprepro and let it list all
the architectures that need a build[1] and spool them to rebuildd.
In that case, when a source with "architecture: any all" is uploaded I
got:
- one job to build "architecture: all"
- one job per supported architectures[2]
If the "architecture: all" job run on a host where a binary dependent
job was run, I lost the .changes.
Here is a workflow:
1. job "architecture: amd64" run on host buildd-amd64 this generate
"<PACKAGE>_<VERSION>_amd64.changes" and dput it on my rerepro
2. job "architecture: all" run on host buildd-amd64 this generate
"<PACKAGE>_<VERSION>_amd64.changes" which overwrite the previous one
and dput it on my rerepro
Now, If I enable more than one parallel job because I have a strong
build machine, I can have the following:
1. job "architecture: amd64" run on host buildd-amd64 this generate
"<PACKAGE>_<VERSION>_amd64.changes"
1.2 job "architecture: all" run on host buildd-amd64 this generate
"<PACKAGE>_<VERSION>_amd64.changes"
2. dput "<PACKAGE>_<VERSION>_amd64.changes"
Depending when the tasks finished, I may dput both packages like
previously, or only the second one if it overwrite the first .changes
before its dput'ed.
In that case, if "dpkg-buildpackage -A" generate a
"<PACKAGE>_<VERSION>_all.changes" everything will works.
Regards.
