Bug#423028: gv: fix binary build on various Debian and Ubuntu flavors
Package: gv
Version: 1:3.6.2-4
Severity: minor
I've also been using the following patch to build the 3.6.2-4 source
package on various flavors of Debian and Ubuntu. The patch fixes the
problem of quilt returning inconsistent error codes depending on the
version of quilt. A few examples:
* with Debian 3.1/i386 and quilt 0.39-2:
$ ( cd /tmp ; quilt pop -a ; echo $? )
No patch removed
1
* with Ubuntu 7.04/i386 and quilt 0.45-6:
$ (cd /tmp ; quilt pop -a ; echo $? )
No patch removed
2
* with Debian stable/testing/unstable mix and quilt 0.46-2:
$ (cd /tmp ; quilt pop -a ; echo $? )
No patch removed
1
The quilt manpage doesn't document any exit codes, so I don't know
which version is correct. The patch below avoids the issue by
allowing 1 or 2 as the exit code in the rules file.
