The build unfortunately failed at the very end with:
dpkg-genchanges
dpkg-genchanges: failure: cannot open upload file
../libroot-ruby5.09_5.09.1-2_amd64.deb for reading: No such file or
directory
Indeed, no such file was created in the build directory. The thing I
find odd is that there is nevertheless a libroot-ruby5.09 entry in
debian/control ; I don't understand why the .deb wasn't built. (Note:
the exact command I used to build was "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
-uc -us" in order to test that it would also generate the .diff.gz,
.dsc and .changes files OK.)
There were also a number of suspicious-looking messages during the
build such as this one, repeated several times:
*** Warning *** Unknown package root-common - please update
./build/package/lib/makebuilddepend.sh
Despite the error at the end, the build did succeed in producing a lot
of .debs. I installed the generated .debs on the amd64 machine and
used ROOT a bit and it seemed to work fine.
Hope this helps.
