debian-rules-missing-required-target
The debian/rules
file does not provide all required
targets. Both build-arch
and build-indep
must be
provided even if they do nothing.
For sources that do not currently split the building of architecture dependent
and independent installables, the following rules will fall back on the
build
target:
build-arch: build
build-indep: build
Some say that the following form is recommended:
build: build-arch build-indep
build-arch: build-stamp
build-indep: build-stamp
build-stamp:
build here
As a modern alternative, you may wish to use the dh
sequencer
instead. Your sources will no longer be affected by this issue.
Policy now requires those targets. Please add them to avoid rejection.
In your next upload, please also close the bug from the mass bug filing you
received. Details are described in the message to debian-devel
cited below.
For more information please consult:
- Main building script: debian/rules (Section 4.9) in the Debian Policy Manual
- https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2021/11/msg00052.html
