Bug#463440: libuuid-perl: FTBFS with perl 5.10: unconditionally removes /usr/share/perl5
Package: libuuid-perl
Version: 0.02-1
Severity: important
Hi,
libuudi-perl fails to build with perl 5.10 (package available in
experimental):
...
rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty --parents
/tmp/buildd/libuuid-perl-0.02/debian/libuuid-perl/usr/share/perl5
rmdir: failed to remove
`/tmp/buildd/libuuid-perl-0.02/debian/libuuid-perl/usr/share/perl5':
No such file or directory
make: *** [install-stamp] Error 1
usr/share/perl5 needs to be removed only if it exists. The reason why
this fails with perl 5.10 is that in the newer MakeMaker, the bug that
creates spurious /usr/{share,lib}/perl5 is fixed.
Thanks,
dam
P.S. shameless plug: if you don't want to bother, please consider
giving[1] the package to the Debian Perl Group.
