I see that modes/clang10 mangles some files directly, and while this makes me cringe a bit, what about instead adding a modes/dpkg-fixfilepath doing something like: sed -i -e 's,fixfilepath => 0,fixfilepath => 1,g' /usr/share/perl5/Dpkg/Vendor/Debian.pm Is this an acceptible way forward? If not, I can prepare a repository with a modifed dpkg and follow the modes/gcc10 example. >> automatically retry with -fixfilepath > > That would be the current default, right?
