I was about to forward the change to BTS to drop the delta soon, but thanks for following up on the issue here. The problem is in debhelper indedeed and also breaks other builds like groff's one.
Please see the fix for debhelper attached, but i think cvs could also drop the compression override. ** Patch added: "debhelper_10.2.5ubuntu3.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cvs/+bug/1691078/+attachment/4878139/+files/debhelper_10.2.5ubuntu3.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1691078 Title: cvs FTBFS in artful: dpkg-deb: error: invalid compressor parameters: unknown compression strategy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cvs/+bug/1691078/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
