dpkg-shlibdeps and dpkg-gencontrol "chown" problems
Greetings! Is anyone else having problems with the following two
"chown" commands of dpkg-shlibdeps and dpkg-gencontrol, respectively?
# chown(@fowner, "$varlistfile.new") ||
# syserr("chown of \`$varlistfile.new'");
#chown(@fowner, "$fileslistfile.new")
# || &syserr("chown new files list file");
When left uncommented, both trigger the syserr message, and the first
in addition gives a "no such file" error. (substvars.new is newly
created by the previous command.) I run this under a user name in the
"root" group, having changed the permissions of
/usr/bin/{build,debpkg} to 4750. This probably isn't a bug, but a
configuration problem on my part, but as I don't know perl yet, I
really can't say what it is. Running Debian 1.2, and the following
versions of the relevant software:
wisdom:~$ dpkg -l |grep debm
ii debmake 1.95 Development environment for Debian Sourcepac
wisdom:~$ dpkg -l |grep dpkg
ii dpkg 1.4.0.7 Package maintenance system for Debian Linux
ii dpkg-dev 1.4.0.7 Package building tools for Debian Linux
wisdom:~$
Thanks!
