[fpc-devel] make deb fails on trunk

[Rob van der Linde]

Sorry, I think I sent from the wrong email address before, you may get
this message twice, sorry....

Hi, I tried building the trunk today on Ubuntu Linux 32 bit, using these
instructions:

http://www.freepascal.org/wiki/index.php/Release_engineering

I followed the OS specific section for Linux, got the trunk via svn,
made sure there were no libiberty.a, libopcode.a and libbfd.a files on
my system, downloaded the latest libgdb and extracted
into /fpcbuild/fpcsrc as directed, downloaded doc-pdf.tar.gz and placed
it in /fpsbuild (by the way, I think there's a spelling mistake on the
above page, it says "docs-pdf.tar.gz" but the file on the FTP is called
"doc-pdf.tar.gz" without the "s"), anyway.. I ran:

install/makepack

everything's OK so far, I then ran:

make deb NODOCS=1

This actually goes through ok for quite some time, then fails here:

/usr/bin/make -C fpcres exampleinstall

It appears it is trying to delete a directory, where there are still sub
directories inside:

"/home/rob/fpcbuild/build/fpc-2.1.1/debian/tmp/usr/share/doc/fpc-2.1.1"
contains 3 folders, at the time it is trying to delete it: "dbus",
"libcurl", and "openal", this is why the "rmdir" command fails... I
think.

Is this a bug in one of the makefiles?
