Package: update-manager
Version: 2.4-3
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
User: ubuntu-devel at lists.ubuntu.com
Usertags: origin-ubuntu saucy distutils-help

python-distuils-extra 2.38-1 was uploaded yesterday and changes the
behavior of build_help.py.

http://packages.qa.debian.org/p/python-distutils-extra/news/20130722T160301Z.html

This causes update-manager to fail to build.

dh_install -pupdate-manager-gnome
cp: cannot stat './debian/tmp/usr/share/gnome': No such file or directory
dh_install: cp -a ./debian/tmp/usr/share/gnome
debian/update-manager-gnome//usr/share/ returned exit code 1
make: *** [binary-install/update-manager-gnome] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2


I'm attaching a debdiff to not even bother installing the help since
it's not linked to from the UI anyway.

Thanks,
Jeremy
