Package: device-tree-compiler
Version: 1.4.5
Seeverity: normal

Hello,

  I have attempted to build python library for device tree compiler,
however I ran out into build issues with swig components due to -Wall.
I have tried to look for a bug tracking system to report it, but I
have been unable to find one.

  Find log attached with build issues in Debian/unstable build.

  To enable python library builds we need to build depend on swig and
python-dev and drop NO_PYTHON = 1 from rules file.

P.S./ I have contacted upstream mailing list about it.

Regards,

Control: found 877124 1.4.5-1

There appears to be a github page for it:

https://github.com/dgibson/dtc

Had the same issue...

When I did that, for some reason I haven't identified, the package ended
up without documentation or manpages...

Wrong bug, fixed.

This seems a bug of debians own making; debian/rulies copes the upstream
Makefiles warnigns && Werror and then explicitly sets those as CFLAGS for the
build. However this means that they'll get applied *both* to libfdt and
pylibfdt, while when using the upstream makefile those flags only get applied
to libfdt.

Hence upstream never hits these issues as the warnings (treated as errors)
won't be seen doing an upstream build.

I've tried several times, but always get stuck with:

https://bugs.debian.org/877125

There was a hint at a proposed path forward ~2019, but I wasn't able to
get it to work...

Would be happy to see this fixed as well!

I have attached a patch to solve this.
This enables the build but does not touch the packaging, which is left for #1011282.
So the package build will abort on dh_missing with the new files.

We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of
device-tree-compiler, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive.

A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is
attached.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 877125@bugs.debian.org,
and the maintainer will reopen the bug report if appropriate.
