I'm confused about the debian devkit.
I'm trying to (re)build a basic sarge dpkg. This fails because I don't
have ncurses, zlib, or libbz2 installed in my scratchbox target.
dpkg-buildpackage: source package is dpkg

dpkg-buildpackage: Build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting.
dpkg-buildpackage: (Use -d flag to override.)
So I build debs for each of these libraries, (which have no other
dependencies), and that's great. Except that I can't install them.
dpkg -i zlib1g-dev_1.2.2-4.sarge.2_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 32 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace zlib1g-dev 1:1.2.2-4.sarge.2 (using
zlib1g-dev_1.2.2-4.sarge.2_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement zlib1g-dev ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of zlib1g-dev:
zlib1g-dev depends on libc6-dev | libc-dev; however:
Package libc6-dev is not installed.
Package libc-dev is not installed.
dpkg: error processing zlib1g-dev (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
zlib1g-dev
make: *** [zlib-installed] Error 1
Shouldn't the devkit or the toolchain have noticed that I've copied
/lib/libc into my scratchbox target and thus provided a spoof that
scratchbox provides libc? Or does this spoofing only happen for build
time dependencies? Do I really have to go build my own libc and my own
gcc and everything else?
How is this intended to work?
