[Pkg-sssd-devel] Bug#921761: sssd: FTBFS (failing tests)

[Santiago Vila]

Package: src:sssd
Version: 1.16.3-3
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package in buster but it failed:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
 debian/rules build-arch
dh build-arch --with quilt,autoreconf,python2,python3,systemd \
	--builddirectory=build
   dh_quilt_patch -a -O--builddirectory=build
Applying patch fix-curl-ftbfs.diff
patching file src/util/tev_curl.c

Now at patch fix-curl-ftbfs.diff
   dh_update_autotools_config -a -O--builddirectory=build
   dh_autoreconf -a -O--builddirectory=build
Creating directory build
Copying file build/config.rpath
Copying file build/mkinstalldirs
Copying file po/Makevars.template

[... snipped ...]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(The above is just how the build ends and not necessarily the most relevant part)

The build was made in my autobuilder with "dpkg-buildpackage -B"
and it also fails here:

https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/sssd.html

where you can get a full build log if you need it.

If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use reassign and affects,
so that this is still visible in the BTS web page for this package.

Thanks.
