and this is a bug brought on mostly because people think it will look
good to have "package a" maintaner on their resume as long as they only
have to produce Microsoft quality work. It compiled one time, the first
screen came up, ship it.
I have provided you the if statement which needs to be in Debian rules.
You need to replicate that once for each -qt-sql-<database>
configuration switch. That's it.
If you really think you will be able to continue this level of non-
support now that ubuntu is adoption Qt instead of Gtk+ for it's standard
development library, you have another thing coming. The bulk of those
"applications" Ubuntu wants to bring in require reliable single database
compilation, mostly SQLite, but many require compile in/embedded mysql.
You offered an unreliable hack. I offered you the actual code.
ifeq ("-qt-sql-sqlite ", $(findstring "-qt-sql-sqlite ", $(LDFLAGS)))
rm debian/libqt4-sql-sqlite.install
fi
ifeq ("-qt-sql-mysql", $(findstring "-qt-sql-mysql", $(LDFLAGS)))
rm debian/libqt4-sql-mysql.install
fi
ifeq ("-qt-sql-odbc", $(findstring "-qt-sql-odbc", $(LDFLAGS)))
rm debian/libqt4-sql-odbc.install
fi
ifeq ("-qt-sql-psql", $(findstring "-qt-sql-psql", $(LDFLAGS)))
rm debian/libqt4-sql-psql.install
fi
ifeq ("-qt-sql-tds", $(findstring "-qt-sql-tds", $(LDFLAGS)))
rm debian/libqt4-sql-tds.install
fi
ifeq ("-qt-sql-sqlite2", $(findstring "-qt-sql-sqlite2", $(LDFLAGS)))
rm debian/libqt4-sql-sqlite2.install
fi
And don't forget the " " at the end of sqlite or you can get a false
match with sqlite2 thanks to that backward compatibility issue.
