Version: 2.1.3-1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch

Hi,

The jscommunicator package FTBFS with debhelper/11.1 as it has an
empty build target.  This is caused by debhelper had a bug in its
handling of "explicitly defined rules targets" that has now been
fixed.

Previously, this happened to work because dpkg-buildpackage would
invoke "debian/rules build" (which would be a no-op) followed by
"fakeroot debian/rules binary".  During the binary target, dh's
suboptimal handling would run the build commands.

The solution for jscommunicator is trivial: Drop the unnecessary
".PHONY: build" line and every thing works.  I have attached a patch
for this.


More details can be found in:
 * #886901 comment #35
 * #887688 comment #37
 * #880840

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Thanks,
~Niels
