Package: src:xmltoman

Severity: important

Dear maintainer:
During a mass rebuild of all packages in bookworm, your package failed
to build in this way:
dh build-indep
dh_update_autotools_config -i
dh_autoreconf -i
dh_auto_configure -i
dh_auto_build -i
make -j2
make[1]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>'
chmod 0755 xmltoman
chmod 0755 xmlmantohtml
./xmltoman xml/xmlmantohtml.1.xml > xmlmantohtml.1
/bin/sh: 1: ./xmltoman: Permission denied
make[1]: *** [Makefile:15: xmlmantohtml.1] Error 126
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
./xmltoman xml/xmltoman.1.xml > xmltoman.1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>'
dh_auto_build: error: make -j2 returned exit code 2
make: *** [debian/rules:5: build-indep] Error 25
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build-indep subprocess returned
exit status 2
There is in fact a bug in the Makefile, which manifests itself when
building in parallel:
xmltoman.1: xml/xmltoman.1.xml
chmod 0755 xmltoman
./xmltoman $< > $@
xmlmantohtml.1: xml/xmlmantohtml.1.xml
chmod 0755 xmlmantohtml
./xmltoman $< > $@
To create xmlmantohtml.1, it's still xmltoman the one that needs a
chmod, not xmlmantohtml.
Trivial (but untested) patch attached.
Thanks.
