Package: src:libcec
Version: 7.1.1-2
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs forky sid
Dear maintainer:
During a rebuild of all packages in unstable, this package failed to build.
Below you will find the last part of the build log (probably the most
relevant part, but not necessarily). If required, the full build log
is available here:
https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/build-logs/202608/
About the archive rebuild: The build was made on virtual machines from AWS,
using sbuild and a reduced chroot with only build-essential packages.
If you cannot reproduce the bug please contact me privately, as I
am willing to provide ssh access to a virtual machine where the bug is
fully reproducible.
If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use
reassign and add an affects on src:libcec, so that this is still
visible in the BTS web page for this package.
Thanks.

Description:
cec-utils - USB CEC Adaptor communication Library (utility programs)
libcec-dev - USB CEC Adaptor communication Library (development files)
libcec8 - USB CEC Adaptor communication Library (shared library)
librust-libcec-dev - Rust bindings for libCEC

python3-libcec - Python bindings for libCEC
Closes: 1134169 1145451
Changes:
libcec (8.1.6+dfsg2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Bump standards version
* New upstream version 8.1.6 (closes: #1145451)
* Repack to drop prebuilt Windows binaries (support/windows/*.exe,
support/windows/libusb0.dll); debian/copyright Files-Excluded and
+dfsg suffix
* SONAME bump, rename libcec7 to libcec8
* Upstream no longer uses p8-platform: drop libp8-platform-dev
build dep and the include/platform symlink
* Drop 03_reproducible_build.patch: superseded by upstream
DISABLE_BUILDINFO option, now passed by debian/rules
* Drop 04_fix_pkgconfig_libdir.patch: fixed upstream
* Install new cmake package config files
* Build with dh_python3 so python module is installed where interpreter
can find it; ship the _pycec extension module alongside cec.py;
without either, python3-libcec was unusable (closes: #1134169)
* New binary package librust-libcec-dev, the upstream Rust binding,
shipping the crate source under /usr/share/cargo/registry. Skipped
with build profile pkg.libcec.norust
* New binary package node-libcec, the upstream Node.js N-API addon,
built with node-gyp rather than cmake's ENABLE_NODE_LIB which would
need network access. Skipped with build profile pkg.libcec.nonodejs
* The .NET binding is not packaged
* debian/copyright: document AOCEC, IMX, Linux and EventGhost copyright
holders, and the vendored AMD ADL SDK headers
* Drop pkg-kde-tools build dependency, unused since d/symbols was
replaced by d/shlibs
* Bump debhelper compat to 14
- dh_dwz is no longer in the default sequence, which only grows
the -dbgsym packages
- cmake is automatically passed -DCMAKE_BUILD_RPATH_USE_ORIGIN=ON
* Strip libcec.a from debian/rules: dh_strip has a bug which makes it
think this static library is a text file and not strip it (NOTE:
remove this stanza when https://bugs.debian.org/875780 is fixed.)
* Move debian/ man pages to debian/man/, write one for pyCecClient, and
remove cec-config.1 which was unused.
* Ship cecc-client in cec-utils, as upstream's own packaging does, with
a man page. It uses libcec with dlopen and the C API rather than
linking, thus exercising the ABI the other bindings use.
* New patches 0004 / 0005 implement cecc-client --help / --list-devices,
both of which were stubs that silently printed nothing
* Repack to drop vendored AMD Display Library headers
(src/libcec/platform/adl/adl_{defines,sdk,structures}.h). Their
copyright notice disclaims warranty but grants no permission to use,
copy, modify or redistribute.
* Replace above headers with more recent version of the same headers,
which AMD republished under the MIT licence.
* Tiny patch to make the newer adl_*.h headers work.
