Bug#463532: FTBFS with perl5.10: removes usr/share/perl5 unconditionally
Package: text-bidi
Version: 0.03-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Hi,
Your package fails to build with perl 5.10 from experimental:
...
rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty -p /tmp/buildd/text-bidi-0.03/debian/libtext-bidi-perl/usr/share/perl5/
rmdir: failed to remove `/tmp/buildd/text-bidi-0.03/debian/libtext-bidi-perl/usr/share/perl5/': No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1
The reason for this is that MakeMaker that is shipped with perl5.10
finally stops creating the spurious usr/{share,lib}/perl5 directories.
Please change the removal line to
[ ! -d $(TMP)/usr/share/perl5 ] || rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty --parents --verbose $(TMP)/usr/share/perl5
Thanks,
dam
P.S. shameless plug: if you don't want to bother, please consider
giving[1] the package to the Debian Perl Group.
