Hi There!
I'm trying to build my first "real" - not quick&dirty deb - this way. For my test i take sensors-applet-1.7.5 which i can build via the "usual" way without problems. So all necessary libs etc are installed.
When i try to create the package with
I get this errorCode:pdebuild --use-pdebuild-internal
libxml-parser-perl is installed on my system, so i really don't know what to do.Code:checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool make: *** [config.status] Error 1
Thanks
Christoph
I'd say don't use pdebuild wrapper, use pbuilder instead. pdebuild will expose the build directory inside chroot and atleast that's not what I want. It doesn't support hooks either.
The idea of pbuilder is to use chroot environment. Think it as a minimal (and even static) environment required for compiling. It doesn't matter what libraries you've installed on your system, pbuilder executes on its own environment.
Does debian/control contain libxml-parser-perl? Use pbuilder build x.x.x.dsc instead.
Do you know anything about pbuilder-uml ? It seems like a cool thing, tho seems to be abandoned since 2003 or so.
I've seen this: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/piper...ne/000247.html
Would be nice if they are working on a release for it
pbuilder User's manual contains stuff about pbuilder-uml, but I understood that it's pretty much broken feature. I'm actually very happy with pbuilder once I figured out to put some hooks to make life easier.
I've been playing around with sbuild too, which feels much faster than pbuilder. I suggest to try it out, although its documentation is bit poor.
I added optional OTHERMIRROR in ~/.pbuilderrc example. This allows pbuilder to use additional Ubuntu repositories (updates, security, backports, ..etc) when searching build dependencies.
I'm trying to build a package and I got this error:
???Code:checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool make: *** [config.status] Error 1 pbuilder: Failed autobuilding of package W: no hooks of type C found -- ignoring
I thought pbuilder auto-installs dependencies.
