Bug#280869: apache: Unnecessary Build-Depends on figlet
Package: apache
Version: 1.3.33-1
Severity: minor
Apache build-depends on figlet for this code from debian/rules:
| binary: pre-binary binary-indep binary-arch
| if [ -e debian/apache.buildd.${BUILD_ARCH} ]; then \
| figlet `cat debian/apache.buildd.${BUILD_ARCH}`; \
| else \
| echo -e "\n\n*** HEY THIS IS YOUR LUCKY DAY! ***\n\n"; \
| fi
romain@pacem:/tmp/apache-1.3.33$ figlet `cat debian/apache.buildd.i386`

This is:
a) a perfect waste of buildd resources;
b) unnecessary;
c) rude;
d) not documented in debian/changelog.
Please remove this from the package.
