[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#995672: cockpit-machines: 253-1 fails to build via apt-src

[Friedemann Schorer]

Package: cockpit-machines
Version: 253-1
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs
Justification: fails to build from source

Dear Maintainer,

Got the latest source packages for cockpit-machines 253-1, unpacked them
locally via 'dpkg-source -x', made the source known to apt-src ('apt-src
import cockpit-machines --location cockpit-machines-253') and tried to
build it.
Here's the output:

 ~/build: apt-src list                                                                                 
i   cockpit-machin 253-1          /home/frschorer/build/cockpit-machines-253   
 ~/build: apt-src build cockpit-machines                                                              
E: Not installed

When I import the sourcetree of cockpit 254-1 from unstable sources,
too,  and then try to build cockpit-machines apt-src builds the other cockpit packages instead.

I build a few packages through apt-src and never had this problem with any source package before, neither cockpit related packages nor others.

Pls let me know if you need additional info - I'd be happy to provide it
if possible.
