Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
after some time I have to rebuild some debian packages using the debhelper |
| 4 |
scripts and recognized the following error: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
'dh_gencontrol' fails with missing File/FcntlLock.pm: |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
$> dpkg-buildpackage -b -d |
| 9 |
... |
| 10 |
dh_gencontrol |
| 11 |
Can't locate File/FcntlLock.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl |

There were no changes done within the debian rules or similar, just the |
| 26 |
packages sources have been updated - these rules worked fine in the past. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
I can also confirm that everything workes fine again after manually installing |
| 29 |
the CPAN 'File-FcntlLock' package from |
| 30 |
http://search.cpan.org/~jtt/File-FcntlLock-0.12/ |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
I don't understand why the File-FcntlLock package is not provided by portage |
| 33 |
(at least I didn't find any corresponding package) - it looks like it has been |
| 34 |
removed from portage tree (as the problem did not occur in the past - even |
| 35 |
though I could not find any entry regarding an uninstall in emerge.log either). |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
I tried to solve the problem by running |
| 38 |
- emerge -vu --deep --newuse @world |
| 39 |
- revdep-rebuild |
| 40 |
- emerge --oneshot dev-lang/perl |
| 41 |
- perl-cleaner --all |
| 42 |
- perl-cleaner --allmodules --libperl --phupdate |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
There's still no File/FcntlLock.pm. |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Which portage package or missing USE flag should provide this CPAN package? |
| 47 |
Is it obsolete and should be replaced by something else? Then it would be a |
| 48 |
bug in debhelpers dependencies ... |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
dev-lang/perl & dev-util/debhelper are both current stable versions, |
| 51 |
installing latest unstable dev-util/debhelper makes no difference. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
Thanks a lot & best regards |
