This is solved in Git. However, when I try to build the status in Git I
get:
E: libatomic-queue-dev: unpack-message-for-deb-data ar failed for usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libatomic_queue.a
N:
N: Unpacking the contents of the data.tar.gz member of this installable package produced the listed error.
N:
N: It probably means something is broken or the package was somehow constructed in a strange way.
N:
N: Visibility: error
N: Show-Always: no
N: Check: lintian
N:
and in fact when I install the packages I get:
$ ar t /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libatomic_queue.a
ar: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libatomic_queue.a: malformed archive
I've never seen this before and I wonder whether this is something
I should be concerned about before uploading.
Kind regards
Andreas.
