Package: equivs
Version: 2.0.9
Severity: normal
I tried to do something like this:
[50+1]transitional-foo$ grep '^Files:' control
Files: foo /usr/bin
[51+1]transitional-foo$ file foo
foo: broken symbolic link to `bar'
The idea was to make a "compatibility" package for bar which would allow
calling /usr/bin/bar as /usr/bin/foo instead (and, more importantly,
would allow the installation of other packages that depend on foo,
without installing the real foo).
Unfortunately equivs gets seriously confused in this situation:
[40+0]transitional-foo equivs-build control
Cannot copy foo to
/usr/local/var/git/transitional-sp/equivs.nI3JY_/install/0/foo:\
No such file or directory
When I make foo a trivial shell script instead, it works:
[52+1]transitional-foo cat foo
#! /bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/bar "$@"
[53+1]transitional-foo equivs-build control
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_prep

dh_testroot
dh_install
dh_installdocs
dh_installchangelogs
dh_compress
dh_fixperms
dh_installdeb
dh_gencontrol
dh_md5sums
dh_builddeb
dpkg-deb: building package `transition-foo' in `../transition-foo_1.0_all.deb'.
The package has been created.
Attention, the package has been created in the current directory,
not in ".." as indicated by the message above!
