Our build system may be broken: /bin vs /usr/bin
tl;dr: We may be messing up /bin and /usr/bin on some platforms
Sorry for the alarming headline but #913982 was filed, indepedently
corrobated and simultaneously discovered by upstream.
GNU R has long been relying on sed, tar, bzip2, ... and many more base
tools. No issues there. Generally looked for in /bin and found there.
Starting with binary rebuild r-base_3.5.1-1+b2 however, /usr/bin/* path crept
in while the binaries where still in the wrong place. It looked like a
one-off so I uploaded 3.5.1-2 which built fine for me on amd64 ...but
apparently is already borked again on i386.
I am at bit of loss here. Any ideas?
Please CC me on replies. I will keep a look at the list archive too.
Cheers, Dirk
