Bug#1007094: kristall: reproducible builds: manpage content missing

Vagrant Cascadian vagrant at reproducible-builds.org

Source: kristall
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: usrmerge
X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bugs at lists.alioth.debian.org

When built on a system without usrmerge applied, the content from
manpages is missing if the build environment does not have usrmerge
symlinks from /bin to /usr/bin.

This is because gem-to-man.awk assumes awk is present at /bin/awk, which
is only present on Debian systems if the usrmerge symlink from /bin to
/usr/bin is present.

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/experimental/amd64/diffoscope-results/kristall.html

The attached patch changes this to /usr/bin/awk instead, which should be
present on all debian systems.


With this patch applied, kristall should build reproducibly on
tests.reproducible-builds.org!


Thanks for maintaining kristall!


live well,
