[Pkg-zfsonlinux-devel] Bug#902233: Missing zfs-dkms dependencies for minimal install

[Joel Johnson]

Package: zfs-dkms
Version: 0.7.9-3~bpo9+1
Severity: important

It appears that at least one dependency is missing for zfs-dkms. I 
create a new squeeze installation using debootstrap, enabled 
squeeze-backports, and performed manual installation of zfs-dkms. The 
build failed, giving the following message early on and then eventually 
failing the build.

I installed the dh-exec package containing the dpkg-architecture command 
and the build succeeded after that. I didn't do extensive testing, but 
expect that additional transitive dependencies were also required for 
the build actually suceeding (e.g. autoconf, automake debhelper, etc.).
