From 3a08b699df9e74eef0d172dc30dccf7f8b9bb711 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Ward Date: Sat, 6 Aug 2016 16:35:10 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] debian/compat is required, v9 or above DebHelper, which helps build Debian packages, fails for the Debian packaging as is. This is due to the system autoassuming a compat level of Debhelper 1, and anything older than v4 is not accepted. Debian Testing, Ubuntu Xenial, etc. have DebHelper compat 9 as the recommended (this is also seen in the Debian Maintainer Guide (on August 6, 2016): https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/dother.en.html#compat) --- debian/compat | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) create mode 100644 debian/compat diff --git a/debian/compat b/debian/compat new file mode 100644 index 000000000..ec635144f --- /dev/null +++ b/debian/compat @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +9
