rbasakLinks to download source files from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+queue are http, not https. But https does work. Is this a bug?15:13
amartinHello, I'm attempting to build a package for precise, the i386 version succeeds but the amd64 version fails: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/185023130/buildlog_ubuntu-precise-amd64.libusbx_2%3A1.0.17-1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz15:24
amartintouch build-arch-deb-stamp dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 215:24
amartinseems like a pretty cryptic error - any ideas on where I should look?15:24
amartinthe PPA is here: https://launchpad.net/~xespackages/+archive/ubuntu/virtualization-testing15:25
cjwatsonamartin: The real error is a bit further back15:26
cjwatson/bin/bash: doxygen: command not found15:26
amartinah, so I probably need doxygen listed in Build-Depends?15:28
cjwatsonamartin: Looks like doxygen needs to be moved from Build-Depends-Indep to Build-Depends, indeed.  I think this is because precise's dpkg-dev toolchain doesn't fully support the newer build-indep scheme15:29
amartinah, okay that makes sense15:29
amartincjwatson: thanks for the help!15:30

amartinI'm attempting to build a package which requires a newer version of libfdt1 than is available on precise, however trusty has the newer version:16:43
amartinhttp://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libfdt116:43
amartinthis package does not have a debian directory with it - how can this be built on launchpad (or should I just create my own)?16:44
cjwatsonEvery source package built in Launchpad has a debian directory, but you may be looking in the wrong place.16:44
cjwatsonhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/device-tree-compiler16:44
amartincjwatson: I don't see it listed on the device-tree-compiler page either16:57
dobeydevice-tree-compiler *is* the source package16:58
dobeyapt-get source device-tree-compiler, or bzr branch lp:ubuntu/device-tree-compiler will get you the latest version in ubuntu16:58
dobey(well, the latter will assuming that the tree is actually updated)16:59
dobeyor pull-lp-source $sourcepkgname16:59
amartindobey: yes, but don't I need a debian directory in order to publish it? To tell it which binary packages to build and the other deb metadata?16:59
dobeyamartin: apt-get source gets the source package, not the binaries16:59
dobeyand the bzr branch will have debian/ in it as well17:00
dobeyanother option is that it's possible to just copy packages from the ubuntu archive to a different series in a ppa, as well17:00
cjwatsonamartin: right, I can assure you the directory you're looking for is in the source package there17:08
cjwatsonamartin: but as dobey says, you might just want to copy it.  bzr branch lp:ubuntu-archive-tools, then in the resulting directory, ./copy-package --from=ubuntu --from-suite=trusty --to=~xespackages/ubuntu/virtualization-testing --to-suite=precise device-tree-compiler17:09
cjwatsonthat'll copy the source package from trusty into your PPA and rebuild it for precise17:09
cjwatson(if you wanted to copy the binaries as well you could add the -b option, but I wouldn't personally do that when copying backwards in series order; also you can only do a source-only rebuilding copy like this once for a given PPA and thereafter you'll need to actually upload something, but hopefully this is all you need)17:11
