| Hello, I have HSP 0.5.2 installed in my global package index, and in my local ~/.cabal. This causes dh_haskell_depends to generate a .substvars file with a dependency that lacks a name, but has a version number that is 1.5MB long :p Here is a snippet of things going wrong: providing_package_for_ghc6_prof hsp-0.5.2-bdfd213b33219825eba1d5f48fd2c83e + local package + local dep + local dir + local dirs + local lib + strip_hash hsp-0.5.2-bdfd213b33219825eba1d5f48fd2c83e + echo hsp-0.5.2-bdfd213b33219825eba1d5f48fd2c83e + sed s/-................................$// + dep=hsp-0.5.2 + grep -i ^library-dirs + cut -d: -f 2 + ghc-pkg6 field hsp-0.5.2 library-dirs + dirs= /home/stepcut/.cabal/lib/hsp-0.5.2/ghc-6.13 /usr/lib/haskell-packages/ghc6/lib/hsp-0.5.2/ghc-6.13 + ghc-pkg6 field hsp-0.5.2 hs-libraries + grep -i ^hs-libraries + sed -e s|hs-libraries: *\([^ ]*\).*|\1| + lib=HShsp-0.5.2 HShsp-0.5.2 + [ -e /home/stepcut/.cabal/lib/hsp-0.5.2/ghc-6.13/libHShsp-0.5.2 HShsp-0.5.2_p.a ] + [ -e /usr/lib/haskell-packages/ghc6/lib/hsp-0.5.2/ghc-6.13/libHShsp-0.5.2 HShsp-0.5.2_p.a ] + echo + pkg= + dependency + local package + local version + local next_upstream_version + package= + dpkg-query --showformat=${Version} -W + version=2.6.6-0ubuntu12.<truncated version number, was 1.5MB long> I believe the problem is this line: $ ghc-pkg6 field hsp-0.5.2 hs-libraries hs-libraries: HShsp-0.5.2 hs-libraries: HShsp-0.5.2 it is expecting only one line, but gets two, which results in the lib being all wrong (contains a line breaks, etc). This cascades until we get to the call to dpkg-query which lacks a package name, and appears to simply contain every package version on my local system (or something to that effect). I have not included a patch. I would guess that other functions are vulnerable to this same issue, I have not checked. I am using: haskell-devscripts 0.7.9-27+seereason1~jaunty1 (It seems highly unlikely this issue is due to anything we have changed.) - jeremy |
