Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.10.15
Severity: critical
Tags: sid
Justification: breaks unrelated software
I am slapping an RC bug on this just so that this issue will be
considered before 1.10.15 is allowed to slide in to sarge.
Version 1.10.10 built a thinkpad-modules-the.kern.ver package fine.
Version 1.10.15 aborts with the following error message:
========================================================
jdthood@thanatos:/usr/src/linux-2.4.22$ make-kpkg --rootcmd=fakeroot modules-ima ge
for module in /usr/src/modules/thinkpad ; do \
[snip snip]
dh_compress
dh_fixperms
dh_installdeb
dh_gencontrol
dpkg-gencontrol: error: source paragraph in control info file is missing Source line
dh_gencontrol: command returned error code 6400
make[2]: *** [binary-modules] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/thinkpad'
make[1]: *** [kdist_image] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/thinkpad'
Module /usr/src/modules/thinkpad failed.
========================================================
Now, I am quite prepared to change thinkpad-source to add a dummy
"Source:" line to debian/control, but I wonder how many other source
packages are going to be broken by this. Could dpkg-dev be easily
changed to tolerate (again) a debian/control file without a Source:
line? That would be safer at this stage of the release game.
If this is really just my bad then please reassign this bug to
thinkpad-source.

OK.
I have fixed this in thinkpad now, so no more problem here.
Closing.
