#45888 — How to create multi-source tarball with different submodules for scipy

Hi,

I tried to create a multi-source tarball for scipy in its experimental
branch[1].  Upstream includes a set of git submodules in its build
process.  I intended to merge all these submodules in a single
scipy_1.10.0.orig-submodules.tar.gz.  This tarball is created with a
script[2] which makes sure that the exact directory structure as it is
used by upstream is conserved.  This directory layout is needed in the
build process.  Unfortunately `dpkg-source -x` extracts the content of
the submodules tarball into a subdirectory submodules/.

Is there any trick to unpack this tarball right into the root?
Otherwise I need to do some symlinks workaround in d/rules to provide
all files where these are needed.

Kind regards
   Andreas.

Not that I know of; this is the design of the multi-source tarball
setup: each component tarball is extracted into a directory with the
name of the component.

Best wishes,

I haven’t looked closely at it myself, but qtwebengine-opensource-src accomplishes 
something along these lines using `get-orig-source` in their rules file.

https://salsa.debian.org/qt-kde-team/qt/qtwebengine/-/blob/master/debian/rules[1]

Note that, in their case, you must have the python3-debian package installed, because the 
script depends on Python for some of the processing.

When I packaged firmware-microbit-microbit I wasn't aware of any
tricks, so I resorted to overriding dh_auto_build to move the
extracted components into their expected paths before building:

https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/firmware-microbit-micropython/-/blob/debian/master/debian/rules

Not sure if this useful, but I thought I'd pass it along in case it helps.

Cheers,
Nick
