Bug#1044512: gem: Fails to build source after successful build
Hi. I still can't reproduce this in my rebuilding framework. However, if I try to build the package directly from the git repository (i.e. using dpkg-buildpackage, which may or may not work), then I get this when trying to build the source package after a successful binary build: dh clean dh_clean dpkg-source -b . dpkg-source: info: using source format '3.0 (quilt)' dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/gemglfw3window.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/gemsdlwindow.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/gemglxwindow.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/gemglutwindow.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/Gem.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/extra/pix_hit/pix_hit.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/extra/pix_hit/.libs/pix_hit.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/extra/pix_fiducialtrack/pix_fiducialtrack.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/extra/pix_fiducialtrack/.libs/pix_fiducialtrack.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/extra/pix_mano/pix_mano.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/extra/pix_mano/.libs/pix_mano.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/extra/pix_drum/pix_drum.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/extra/pix_drum/.libs/pix_drum.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/src/.libs/Gem.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/src/Output/.libs/gemglutwindow.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/src/Output/.libs/gemglxwindow.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/src/Output/.libs/gemsdlwindow.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/build/flavor-pd32/src/Output/.libs/gemglfw3window.pd_linux dpkg-source: error: detected 18 unwanted binary files (add them in debian/source/include-binaries to allow their inclusion). dpkg-buildpackage: error: dpkg-source -b . subprocess failed with exit status 255 So yes, this matches the commit which was made on 2024 to address the issue, but paradoxically it's not what Lucas reported initially... I feel that this bug is miscategorized and I don't know how could we improve that. IOhannes: Would you be willing to make an upload with the current state of the package in salsa? (versioned 1:0.94-9, I guess). Thanks.
Bug#1044512: gem: Fails to build source after successful build
Hello. I tried to reproduce this and it looked as fixed in trixie to me, so I tried debbisect to determine the exact build-dependency which fixed it. However, debbisect (which internally uses snapshot.debian.org) tells me that this issue did not even happen on 2023-08-13, the date at which the bug was filed. But there was something strange in the "successful" build log for such date: make[1]: Leaving directory '/gem-0.94' dpkg-source -b . dpkg-source: info: using source format '3.0 (quilt)' dpkg-source: info: building gem using existing ./gem_0.94.orig.tar.bz2 dpkg-source: info: using patch list from debian/patches/series dpkg-source: info: building gem in gem_0.94-8.debian.tar.xz dpkg-source: info: building gem in gem_0.94-8.dsc dpkg-genbuildinfo --build=source -O../gem_0.94-8_source.buildinfo dpkg-genchanges --build=source -O../gem_0.94-8_source.changes dpkg-genchanges: info: not including original source code in upload dpkg-source --after-build . dpkg-buildpackage: info: source-only, diff-only upload (original source NOT included) I: waiting for background processes to finish...

I: removing tempdir /tmp/mmdebstrap.H34O4VSvIW... I: success in 691.0229 seconds Could it be the case that the build leaves background processes running which may or may not make a source build after a binary to fail, in a randomly fashion? Thanks.

Source: gem Version: 1:0.94-8 Severity: minor Tags: trixie sid ftbfs User: [email protected] Usertags: ftbfs-sab-20230813 ftbfs-source-after-build User: [email protected] Usertags: qa-doublebuild Hi, This package fails to build a source package after a successful build (dpkg-buildpackage ; dpkg-buildpackage -S). This is probably a clear violation of Debian Policy section 4.9 (clean target), but this is filed as severity:minor for now, because a discussion on debian-devel showed that we might want to revisit the requirement of a working 'clean' target. More information about this class of issues, included common problems and solutions, is available at https://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/FTBFS/SourceAfterBuild Relevant part of the build log: > cd /<> && runuser -u user42 -- dpkg-buildpackage --sanitize-env > -us -uc -rfakeroot -S > > > dpkg-buildpackage: info: source package gem > dpkg-buildpackage: info: source version 1:0.94-8 > dpkg-buildpackage: info: source distribution unstable > dpkg-buildpackage: info: source changed by IOhannes m zmölnig (Debian/GNU) > > dpkg-source --before-build . > debian/rules clean > dh clean >dh_auto_clean > make -j8 distclean > make[1]: Entering directory '/<>' > Making distclean in src > make[2]: Entering directory '/<>/src' > Making distclean in Gem > make[3]: Entering directory '/<>/src/Gem' > rm -rf .libs _libs > test -z "libGem.la" || rm -f libGem.la > rm -f *.o > rm -f *.lo > rm -f *.tab.c > test -z "" || rm -f > rm -f GemGLconfig.h stamp-h2 > rm -f TAGS ID GTAGS GRTAGS GSYMS GPATH tags > test . = "." || test -z "" || rm -f > rm -f ./so_locations > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Cache.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-ContextData.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Dylib.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Event.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Exception.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Files.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-GLStack.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Image.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-ImageLoad.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-ImageSave.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Loaders.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Manager.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-PBuffer.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-PixConvertAltivec.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-PixConvertSSE2.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Properties.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Rectangle.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Settings.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-Setup.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-State.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-VertexBuffer.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libGem_la-glew.Plo > rm -f Makefile > make[3]: Leaving directory '/<>/src/Gem' > Making distclean in RTE > make[3]: Entering directory '/<>/src/RTE' > rm -rf .libs _libs > test -z "libRTE.la" || rm -f libRTE.la > rm -f *.o > rm -f *.lo > rm -f *.tab.c > test -z "" || rm -f > rm -f TAGS ID GTAGS GRTAGS GSYMS GPATH tags > test . = "." || test -z "" || rm -f > rm -f ./so_locations > rm -f ./.deps/libRTE_la-Array.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libRTE_la-Outlet.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libRTE_la-RTE.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libRTE_la-Symbol.Plo > rm -f Makefile > make[3]: Leaving directory '/<>/src/RTE' > Making distclean in Utils > make[3]: Entering directory '/<>/src/Utils' > rm -rf .libs _libs > test -z "libUtils.la" || rm -f libUtils.la > rm -f *.o > rm -f *.lo > rm -f *.tab.c > test -z "" || rm -f > rm -f TAGS ID GTAGS GRTAGS GSYMS GPATH tags > test . = "." || test -z "" || rm -f > rm -f ./so_locations > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-Functions.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-GLUtil.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-GLUtil_define.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-GemString.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-MSVCMinGW.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-Matrix.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-SIMD.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-SynchedWorkerThread.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-Thread.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-ThreadMutex.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-ThreadSemaphore.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-Vector.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-WorkerThread.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-plist.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libUtils_la-pstk.Plo > rm -f Makefile > make[3]: Leaving directory '/<>/src/Utils' > Making distclean in Base > make[3]: Entering directory '/<>/src/Base' > rm -rf .libs _libs > test -z "libBase.la" || rm -f libBase.la > rm -f *.o > rm -f *.lo > rm -f *.tab.c > test -z "" || rm -f > test . = "." || test -z "" || rm -f > rm -f TAGS ID GTAGS GRTAGS GSYMS GPATH tags > rm -f ./so_locations > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-CPPExtern.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemBase.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemContext.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemGluObj.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemPathBase.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemPixDualObj.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemPixObj.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemShape.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemVertex.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemWinCreateEM.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemWinCreateMac.Plo > rm -f ./.deps/libBase_la-GemWinCreateNT.Pl
