Hello Andrew, or anyone else affected,

Accepted debhelper into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debhelper/11.1.6ubuntu2 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

** Description changed:

+ [ Description ]
+ 
+ dh_installxfonts in some cases substitutes a dependency on 'xfont-utils'
+ into ${misc:Depends}. This package doesn't exist; the resulting .deb is
+ uninstallable.
+ 
+ [ Test case ]
+ 
+ Rebuild 'thaixfonts' on bionic and check that the packages depend on
+ 'xfonts-utils' and not 'xfont-utils'.
+ 
+ [ Regression potential ]
+ 
+ If the patch is still wrong, we'll still generate uninstallable
+ packages. If it's really wrong we could break the build.
+ 
+ [ Original report ]
+ 
  The debhelper shipped with 18.04 contains a typo that generates the wrong 
dependency when using dh_installxfonts in a package build. There is already a 
patch from the developer that introduced the typo available in Debian 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=894835
  The effect of this bug can be seen when trying to install a PPA package built 
in the build farm. See
  https://github.com/stsp/dosemu2/issues/597#issuecomment-385178269 for a user 
report

Hi,

Upstream patch that fixes the bug:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/debhelper/commit/98d248f46b6085d691aa29c423fa9fa2e240709a

(Should be trivial to cherry-pick).

Thanks,
~Niels
