Package: cdbs Version: 0.4.84 Severity: wishlist Now that dpkg-dev provides dpkg-buildflags, all packages should start using it to get the default values mandated by the Debian policy (and to support flag tweaking by users who want to experiment).
Given that CDBS abstract this for many packages, it would be nice to have CDBS updated to make use of dpkg-buildflags. Somehow it relates to #523642 but I prefered to open a new bug in case you want to deal with them separately. Note that dpkg-buildflags is currently not designed to let the maintainer tweak the CFLAGS and we should avoid having maintainers setting DEB_CFLAGS_APPEND in debian/rules. Ideally the maintainer should be able to override the build flags by himself and the helper tool should respect that choice and use the default value provided by dpkg-buildflags only if the maintainer has not provided an explicit value. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (150, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages cdbs depends on: ii debhelper 7.4.20 helper programs for debian/rules Versions of packages cdbs recommends: ii autotools-dev 20100122.1 Update infrastructure for config.{ Versions of packages cdbs suggests: ii devscripts 2.10.64 scripts to make the life of a Debi ii doc-base 0.9.5 utilities to manage online documen -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
