Bug#868470: dh-ocaml: Incorrect usage of doit (Dh_Lib)
Package: dh-ocaml
Version: 1.0.10
Severity: important
Hi,
There is bug in dh_ocaml, which is hidden by bug in Dh_lib. I intend
to fix the latter soon, which will cause issues in dh_ocaml once that
happens. This bug is here:
> close(OLIST) unless $dh{NO_ACT};
> doit("cat $olist_fn") if $dh{VERBOSE};
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
> };
The API of doit intends for it to *not* fork a shell, but the above
only works in a shell call. In the concrete case, please use:
doit('cat', $olist_fn) if $dh{VERBOSE};
Thanks,
~Niels
