Bug#739743: FTBFS: circular dependency

This bug is still blocking migration to testing. If this is unintentional, you should probably downgrade is (because the main issue is solved), or just close it.

This fix requires a new .orig.tar.gz file, and that needs help from ftp-masters to replace the existing file. I've just confirmed with the FTP team that replacing the existing file is not an option. This makes no sense to me; the current .orig.tar.gz file is not useful for anything; the only version it could build cannot actually be built because of the circular dependency. Moreover, the new .orig.tar.gz file is what the upstream project released... If you want to add the pre-built documentation you will need to either change the upstream version (e.g. 2.11.0+doc or so) or place the documentation in the Debian tarball. I'll see if I can't get the ftp masters to help out a bit and make this work in some sensible fashion. -- keith.pack...@intel.com pgpwAe5qQhcci.pgp Description: PGP signature
Bug#739743: FTBFS: circular dependency
If only the documentation requires this dependency, a better solution would be to put it in an arch:all package (fontconfig-config or a new (beware queue delay) fontconfig-doc) and use build-depends-indep (https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-sourcebinarydeps). However, if you can't do that quickly, I'd go with the previous solution as a temporary measure, as this bug makes ~all GUI packages BD-Uninstallable on non-amd64. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Sorry...it looks like this is being fixed by forcing builds against 2.11.0-2 (https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=fontconfig), so fixing this bug is no longer so urgent.

Bug#739743: FTBFS: circular dependency
Package: libfontconfig1 Severity: serious fontconfig recently added a build-dependency on docbook-utils, and hence an indirect build-dependency on itself. As the arch:any libfontconfig1 has an exact version dependency on the arch:all fontconfig-config, this causes the build to fail on all architectures other than the first: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=fontconfig -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
