amosbirdHello! I'd like to rebuild a gcc package on ubuntu 24.04. I'm following this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpdatingADeb . However, when doing debuild -us -uc -i -I, it finished with tons of stub packages without doing any actual compilations. What's the proper way of generating a gcc/g++ package? ideally without other stuff11:05

tsimonq2amosbird: Meaning, GCC itself, or a program which uses GCC and has e.g. a Makefile?11:48
amosbirdtsimonq2: gcc itself11:48
tsimonq2amosbird: `debuild -S -d -sa` is burned into my memory to build a source package which is then uploaded into a binary package. Of course, `-us -uc` skips signing. I'd have to look up what `-i`/`-I` does. You're looking to build this package locally?11:49
tsimonq2(uploaded to a PPA and then built into a binary package, that's English, heh)11:49
amosbirdtsimonq2: yes. I'd like to do some local patches to gcc11:49
tsimonq2amosbird: My best advice would be to use sbuild so you don't have to worry about cluttering your local build environment: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SimpleSbuild https://wiki.debian.org/sbuild11:50
tsimonq2That's also what the official infra for both Ubuntu and Debian uses.11:50
tsimonq2If you want to build it *without* such a wrapper (herebedragons), it's a matter of nailing down the right dpkg-buildpackage command.11:51
amosbirdSorry I don't follow. What do you mean by wrapper?11:52
amosbirdIs there any oneliner that I can refer to? I'm trying to find out what the ubuntu building farm does but cannot find out any cmdlines11:53
tsimonq2My apologies, it's somewhat late (early) here. Basically, sbuild allows you to use a clean chroot (and thus pull fresh build deps) for the build.11:53
tsimonq2That's what the Ubuntu build farm does.11:53

cjwatsonoh sorry, tsimonq2 already linked to that12:07
sudipdoes anyone know where can I get the autopkgtest-results.cache ? the link mentioned at https://git.launchpad.net/bileto/tree/britney/fetch-indexes#n126 does not have it14:13
sudipit has for oracular but not for plucky14:14
* sudip wonders if paride knows14:21
