Hello! I'm trying to build gNewSense-2.3 using the Builder and I noticed a problem in apt building. This may indicate some hidden issue in my environment, so I decided to describe it here.
This is errors I've got (note, that I've changed default MIRRORLOCAL and BASEDIR in config.local from "/srv/..." to "/mnt/providence/deltah-works/..." and the latter is NFS storage): $ sudo ./do-update <...> make[1]: Entering directory `/mnt/providence/deltah-works/gnewsense/tmp/apt-0.7.9ubuntu17gnewsense1' make[2]: Entering directory `/mnt/providence/deltah-works/gnewsense/tmp/apt-0.7.9ubuntu17gnewsense1/doc' Creating html for dpkg-tech.sgml to ../build/docs/dpkg-tech.html nsgmls:E: cannot open "/dpkg-tech.sgml" (No such file or directory) nsgmls:/usr/share/sgml/debiandoc/dtd/sgml/1.0/debiandoc.dcl:67:40:E: end of document in prolog make[2]: *** [../build/docs/dpkg-tech.html] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/mnt/providence/deltah-works/gnewsense/tmp/apt-0.7.9ubuntu17gnewsense1/doc' make[1]: *** [doc] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/providence/deltah-works/gnewsense/tmp/apt-0.7.9ubuntu17gnewsense1' make: *** [build/build-doc-stamp] Error 2 dpkg-buildpackage: failure: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2 + exit 1 Obviously, the problem is indicated by 'cannot open "/dpkg-tech.sgml"' message. The leading slash shouldn't be there I suppose. Is this error known? I've tried to call dpkg-buildpackage manually in the chrooted environment, but got the same error: # chroot /mnt/providence/deltah-works/gnewsense/tmp/hardy-i386/ # cd /mnt/providence/deltah-works/gnewsense/tmp/apt-0.7.9ubuntu17gnewsense1/ # export MAINTINFO='gNewSense hackers <gnewsense-dev@nongnu.org>' # dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot '-e"$MAINTINFO"' '-m"$MAINTINFO"' -us -uc -ai386 My brutal fix to move on is like this (in chroot): # ln -s /mnt/providence/deltah-works/gnewsense/tmp/apt-0.7.9ubuntu17gnewsense1/doc/dpkg-tech.sgml / It helped, but it is in no way a proper fix... :-) Does someone have any thoughts? -- I'm an FSF member -- Help us support software freedom! <http://www.fsf.org/jf?referrer=7253> _______________________________________________ gNewSense-dev mailing list gNewSense-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-dev
