Bug#968153: RFS: tinymux/2.12.0.10-1 -- text-based multi-user virtual world server

Package is updated.

I made those changes and tried to upload last night,but the update was silently dropped. Deleting the first upload and uploading again worked. But, doing that caused other problems last time.

I don't understand why debian/control tries to have a tidy Build-Depends but dpkg-buildpackage creates debian/tinymux/DEBIAN/control with the full dependencies including libpcre3. And, that doesn't show up on a lintian report. It's hard to know what it cares about and what it doesn't care about. My guess is that everything on the Depends: line is debian/tinymux/DEBIAN/control is part of the base system _except_ for libpcre3 so that must be called out explicitly in Build-Depends?

Thanks for your help.

^^^^^^^^^^
This tag designates the package's state as WIP, and would have caused an
autoreject if uploaded. By the time you send a RFS, the package is supposed
to be ready to go. Thus, could you please target unstable?

Alas, it fails to build in a clean environment:

command.cpp:23:10: fatal error: pcre.h: No such file or directory
23 | #include <pcre.h>
| ^~~~~~~~

which is caused by an obvious missing Build-Dependency.

Meow!
