As I recall, Andries (util-linux upstream) produced, at least a year

It means that your upstream is having issues; configure should be +x

In this special situation orig.tar.gz is not to blame since orig.tar.gz
is not prepared to use autotools in which case configure does not exist
in upstream.

How I am going to do that? configure is in the tar.gz.diff file and

In my source tree configure has execute permission but when building

Hi all,
I am trying to use pbuilder to test a package I am about to prepare for

trying to execure configure from inside the chroot is fails with the

Hi,
I've two problems with libslang2. The first is, the package libslang2
includes a patch that changes the behaviour of a function. But jed
expects the function behaviour as given in the original slang2 library.
I've reported this bug #369152, 80 days ago, but the maintainer does not

Hi list,
I tried to build heimdal-0.7.2 using the testing source package for
stable. The built itself went fine, but the splitting into subpackages
failed. Also I have no clue how to fix the problem. So can anybody give
me a tip what went wrong here? Since there is no 'binary:' target in
