Source: stdeb
Version: 0.8.2-1
Severity: serious
Tags: jessie sid
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: qa-ftbfs-20140830 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):
> make[1]: Entering directory '/«PKGBUILDDIR»'
> PYTHONPATH=/«PKGBUILDDIR» help2man -N --version-string=0.8.2 -o py2dsc.1 -n 'creates Debian source package from Python package' /«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/python-stdeb/usr/bin/py2dsc
> PYTHONPATH=/«PKGBUILDDIR» help2man -N --version-string=0.8.2 -o py2dsc-deb.1 -n 'dpkg-buildpackage wrapper that integrates with py2dsc and build binary package' /«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/python-stdeb/usr/bin/py2dsc-deb
> PYTHONPATH=/«PKGBUILDDIR» help2man -N --version-string=0.8.2 -o pypi-install.1 -n 'downloads Python package from PyPI, creates Debian package and then installs it' /«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/python-stdeb/usr/bin/pypi-install
> help2man: can't get `--help' info from /«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/python-stdeb/usr/bin/pypi-install
> Try `--no-discard-stderr' if option outputs to stderr
> make[1]: *** [pypi-install.1] Error 1

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. The build
was done with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="parallel=4", so if your packaging tries
to support this, it might be a good idea to explore whether this might
be the cause of the failure.
