As I told you on IRC, this is triggered by the fact that with fakeroot, the pbuilder user tries to read /root/.pangorc, which not accessible. This yields a warning, which caught as being an error in the Ruby Graphiz library. I found that a similar bug report for pygtk: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=570313 The solution proposed is to set the G_HOME variable to / this can be done by adding export G_HOME=/ somewhere at the beginning of debian/rules. Apparently, althoug this yields to build failures with pbuilder, this does not affect buildds. While at it, I saw you wrote manpages for the binaries. Could you use some more markup to follow the man conventions: bold for options, italics for generic names of parameters? I noticed also that you haven't patched yet the use of rubygems in the tests. Cheers, Cédric
