Bug#238080: xfree86: IGNORE_MANIFEST_CHANGES doesn't work
Package: xfree86
Severity: minor
Version: 4.3.0-5
When I was trying to build a custom version of xfree86 using
IGNORE_MANIFEST_CHANGES, it didn't work. The problem appears to be
that the diff command is returning an exit code of 1 when it finds
changes, and since dbs sets SHELL to "/bin/sh -e", the rest of the
command never gets reached. In fact, adding "|| true" after the diff
command fixed the problem. So might adding `|| test "$$?" = 1'
instead, but I haven't tested that one.
