Bug#814702: ghostscript: FTBFS on sparc64 due to mismatched symbols file
Source: ghostscript
Version: 9.16~dfsg-2.1
Severity: normal
User: debian-sparc@lists.debian.org
Usertags: sparc64
Hello!
ghostscript currently fails to build from source on sparc64 due to a mismatched
symbols file:
dpkg-gensymbols: warning: debian/libgs9/DEBIAN/symbols doesn't match completely debian/libgs9.symbols

dh_makeshlibs: failing due to earlier errors
The simple and obvious fix would be to mark the "hdr_id" symbol on sparc64 as
missing which I have already done for the package in the 'unreleased' suite,
(arch!=sparc64) hdr_id@Base 9.10~dfsg
which works fine. However, I think it would be better to figure out first why
this particular symbol is missing on sparc64 and whether this poses any problem.
So far, the patched version seems to work without issues and we therefore
might just go ahead and patch the symbols file as suggested, but it would
be still be good if someone could have a deeper look at this. Maybe it's
any of the (transitive) build dependencies of ghostscript which need to be
rebuilt?
Cheers,
Adrian
