#334301 — Bug#1027380: safeclib: FTBFS in bullseye (missing build-depends on tzdata)

Package: src:safeclib
Version: 3.5-3
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs patch

Dear maintainer:

During a rebuild of all packages in bullseye, your package failed to build:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    dh_autoreconf -a

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(The above is just how the build ends and not necessarily the most relevant part)

Note: I'm using the "patch" tag because there is an obvious fix
(indicated in the subject).

About the archive rebuild: The build was made using virtual machines
from Hetzner, with enough memory, enough disk, and either one or two
CPUs, using a reduced chroot with only build-essential packages (plus
debhelper).

If you could not reproduce the bug please contact me privately, as I
am willing to provide ssh access to a virtual machine where the bug is
fully reproducible.

If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use
reassign and affects, so that this is still visible in the BTS web
page for this package.

Thanks.

FWIW: I am one of those people running archive rebuilds.
I rebuilt the entire bullseye distribution, and I'm trying
to make it FTBFS bug free, as mandated by both Debian Policy
and Release Policy.

Thanks.

I don't think the unreproducible tag applies here.

To reproduce, just try to build it in a chroot which does
not include tzdata. If debootstrap does not do that by default,
then it follows that you should not simply accept debootstrap's defaults.

This is Policy 4.2:

So yes, this is undoubtedly a bug, because tzdata is not build-essential.

I could agree that everything would be easier if debootstrap was fixed once and forever:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=837060

If you can push for that bug to be fixed for bookworm, that would certainly help.

Of course fixing bugs takes a little bit of time, but it may also be argued that
not fixing this kind of bugs produces weird effects which makes some people to lose
some of their time (for example, me building the whole archive trying to keep stable free
from any kind of FTBFS bugs). If, despite having a trivial fix for the bug, you decide
not to fix it in stable and leave the fix for others, I will have less time for other things
which I also want to fix. I know that some people will not agree, but I believe fixing
FTBFS bugs in stable should be primarily a responsibility of the affected maintainers.
Offloading the work to those particularly interested in stable does not scale well.

I have still 87 FTBFS bugs to fix in stable. You are of course free to not help me fixing yours.

Thanks.
