What dpkg-buildpackage does, doesn't really matter -- what matters is policy. build _must_ build the _entire_ package: The `build' target should perform all the configuration and compilation of the package. IOW, you can't take build-indep out of build. However, sbuild is buggy, it seems; policy demands: The `Build-Depends-Indep' and `Build-Conflicts-Indep' fields must be satisfied when any of the following targets is invoked: `build' [...] The simple workaround is just to move the dependency, as I've done in my patch. /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
