[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#841587: node-livescript: FTBFS: /bin/sh: 1: /usr/bin/lsc: not found

[Lucas Nussbaum]

Source: node-livescript
Version: 1.5.0+dfsg-2
Severity: serious
Tags: stretch sid
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: qa-ftbfs-20161021 qa-ftbfs
Justification: FTBFS on amd64

Hi,

During a rebuild of all packages in sid, your package failed to build on
amd64.

Relevant part (hopefully):
>  debian/rules build
> dh build
>    dh_testdir
>    dh_update_autotools_config
>    dh_auto_configure
>    dh_auto_build
> 	make -j1
> make[1]: Entering directory '/<<BUILDDIR>>/node-livescript-1.5.0+dfsg'
> mkdir -p lib/
> /usr/bin/lsc --output lib --bare --compile "src/ast.ls"
> /bin/sh: 1: /usr/bin/lsc: not found
> Makefile:17: recipe for target 'lib/ast.js' failed
> make[1]: *** [lib/ast.js] Error 127

If the failure looks somehow time/timezone related:
Note that this rebuild was performed without the 'tzdata' package
installed in the chroot. tzdata used be (transitively) part of
build-essential, but it no longer is. If this package requires it to
build, it should be added to build-depends. For the release team's
opinion on this, see
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=836940#185

If the failure looks LSB-related:
similarly to tzdata, lsb-base is not installed in the build chroot.

About the archive rebuild: The rebuild was done on EC2 VM instances from
Amazon Web Services, using a clean, minimal and up-to-date chroot. Every
failed build was retried once to eliminate random failures.
