Happy New Year, everybody! Andreas already answered it, but let me just try some extra wording. The first upload of the package builds both the architecture-dependent and the arch-independent packages. Everything will exist. The build demons only build what has not been built before, i.e. the arch-dependent packages. Consequently, on the demons, dh_install is not attempting to install your arch-INdependent Perl script and the chmod on its location where it would be placed if there was the arch-INdependent package existing, sees a difficulty, but not the Perl script.
The easiest fix coming to my mind is possibly to chmod src/extIDS.pl before dh_install is invoked. Best, Steffen > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 01. Januar 2014 um 17:23 Uhr > Von: "L.C.
