Package: python-trml2pdf
Version: 1.0-1
Hi,
The python-trml2pdf rules file contains the following:
binary-post-install/python-trml2pdf::
# Setup the module as executable too
chmod 755 debian/$(PKG)/usr/share/python-support/python-trml2pdf/trml2pdf/trml2pdf.py
ln -sf ../share/python-support/python-trml2pdf/trml2pdf/trml2pdf.py debian/$(PKG)/usr/bin/trml2pdf
With the upcoming version of python-support (currently in experimental),
such statements will make the package FTBFS, since the files are now
moved to a different directory (/usr/share/pyshared).
To fix this issue, I think the best course of action is to use a wrapper
script instead. This script could look like:
#! /bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/python -m trml2pdf.trml2pdf
As a general rule, please do not rely on the internals of python-support
in the packaging; this will avoid such issues in the future (although
hopefully there won’t be a need to change the paths any further).
Thanks,
--
