Re: "dh_autoreconf: Can only be run once, see dh-autoreconf" when building package from Sid for Stretch

[Douglas Kosovic <doug@uq.edu.au>]

Hi Fonzie,

I tried to find a stretch-backports sponsor for my network-manager-l2tp 1.2.10-1~bpo9+1 package on this mailing list a few months ago but had no luck, anyway you can find the package here:

https://mentors.debian.net/package/network-manager-l2tp

You can find the package changes here :
https://github.com/dkosovic/debian/commit/b6f26dccb7844202f6ad5455d0724010a8d34ae7

Which includes building with libnm-glib which Sid and Testing have since dropped.



Cheers,
Doug

    Several days ago, I fetched "network-manager-l2tp" and "openfortivpn"
    source from Debian testing/sid and tried to build them for Stretch,
    using sbuild. Basically, what I did was
    1, enable "testing" or "sid" in sources.list;
    2, "apt update";
    3, fetch the source of the package.
    4, sbuild the package with "-d stretch"
    
    I was able to generated guile_2.2.3-3 package with above steps. But
    for "network-manager-l2tp" and "openfortivpn", if I build directly
    from the unchanged source from Sid, a complaint saying something like
    "dephelper (>= 11) was needed" was in the build log.
    …
    I'm relatively new to Debian packaging. So I may be missing something
    obvious. Any ideas?
