Hi,

This package fails to build a source package after a successful build
(dpkg-buildpackage ; dpkg-buildpackage -S).

This is probably a clear violation of Debian Policy section 4.9 (clean target),
but this is filed as severity:minor for now, because a discussion on
debian-devel showed that we might want to revisit the requirement of a working
'clean' target.

More information about this class of issues, included common problems and
solutions, is available at
https://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/FTBFS/SourceAfterBuild

Relevant part of the build log:
The full build log is available from:
http://qa-logs.debian.net/2023/08/13/php-gettext_1.0.12-6_unstable.log

If you reassign this bug to another package, please mark it as 'affects'-ing
this package. See https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control#affects

If you fail to reproduce this, please provide a build log and diff it with mine
so that we can identify if something relevant changed in the meantime.

Hi,

These bugs were fixed in php-gettext 1.0.12-7, but that upload was
rejected and never reached the archive. The same changes went into
1.0.12-8, which is now in unstable, but that upload did not carry the
1.0.12-7 changelog entry, so the bugs were not closed automatically.
Closing them by hand.

From the 1.0.12-7 changelog entry:

* Use PHPUnit attributes instead of doc-comment annotations for the
data providers (Closes: #1117419)
* Keep the PHPUnit cache out of /usr/bin, which is not writable, so the
tests no longer write to stderr (Closes: #1092095)
* Remove the PHPUnit cache in debian/clean, so the source package can
be built after a binary build (Closes: #1049264). Thanks to Phil Wyett
for the merge request.

Cheers
