Package: scilab
Version: 5.4.1-4
Severity: serious

If you try to build scilab in a clean chroot with "sbuild -A" so that it
builds architecture-independent packages, it fails to build:

  Adding cdbs dependencies to debian/scilab-doc.substvars
  dh_installdirs -pscilab-doc
  mkdir /«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/scilab-doc/usr/share/scilab/modules/helptools/jar/
  EN_US_DOC=/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/tmp/usr/share/scilab/modules/helptools/jar/scilab_en_US_help.jar; \
          mv $EN_US_DOC /«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/scilab-doc/usr/share/scilab/modules/helptools/jar/
  mv: cannot stat '/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/tmp/usr/share/scilab/modules/helptools/jar/scilab_en_US_help.jar': No such file or directory
  make: *** [install/scilab-doc] Error 1

The full build log is half a megabyte gzipped, so I doubt I can attach
it here, but I've put it at
http://people.debian.org/~cjwatson/tmp/scilab_5.4.1-4_i386.build.gz for
the time being.

Thanks,
