2017-07-22Revert to the pre-10.6.4 behavior for dh_installdocs and the likeSven Joachim5-8/+10
It turned out that "dh_installdocs 'foo bar'" has historically treated the argument as a single file rather than two, and packages were relying on it, since there is really no other way to install such a file with dh_installdocs. Hence commit d00d7d524f8 broke them. The situation for dh_installexamples, dh_installman and dh_installinfo is exactly the same. That dh_install has behaved differently in this respect is unfortunate, but can only be fixed in a new compat level. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>
2017-07-22dh: Optimize out dh_testdir as it is literally uselessNiels Thykier2-6/+6
As it turned out in 333376abf9c4d6e8f286a7cbda7e8c13307745f3, dh_testdir is called too late to provide its "helpful" error message. Accordingly, dh itself has to print it directly now (via getpackages()) for the user to get the correct error message. This literally makes dh_testdir useless under dh in its default configuration. While it is possible to override dh_testdir and have it check for other files, it is largely an unused feature - even more under dh. On the plus side, we seem to save 2x 0.040s by doing this per build. Assuming 70% of the 25 000 source packages in Debian are using dh, this translates into a 23 "core-minutes" saving on an single architecture archive-wide rebuild (e.g. arch:amd64 plus arch:all). Somehow, I hope I got the math wrong because it seems obscene... Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>

This function does not do anything particularly useful at the moment, but we hope to make it do that in the future. By including it now, other tools can migrate to it easier if/when it becomes useful. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>

2017-07-22Dh_Lib: (Mostly) avoid shell forking when installing maintscriptsNiels Thykier2-4/+19
Except one case, this remove all forking of a shell for installing maintscripts. The remaining case being the "qx{}" in the perl subprocess when merging an auto-generated script into a hand-written one. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>

2017-07-15autopkgtest-pkg-perl: fix smoke test.gregor herrmann7-6/+23
autopkgtest-pkg-perl's smoke test fails all over the place because debhelper's testsuite has many assumptions that it is run from the source tree, while autopkgtest-pkg-perl's smoke test copies (by default) the t/ directory to a new empty directory and runs the tests from there. Add debian/tests/pkg-perl/smoke-files to copy more files from the source tree which are used in tests. Add debian/tests/pkg-perl/smoke-skip to skip t/size.t which fails when run under autopkgtest-pkg-perl because it tests all /usr/bin/dh_* helpers, and at least dh_autotools-dev_updateconfig is too large. Change t/buildsystems/03-bs-auto-buildable.t, t/buildsystems/buildsystem_tests.t, t/override_target.t, t/size.t, and t/syntax/syntax-progs.t to look for scripts and modules not in the source tree but in the installed directories when run under autopkgtest. With these changes, the test suite passes both during build and during autokpkgtest. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>
2017-07-15autopkgtest-pkg-perl: add debian/tests/pkg-perl/skip-syntax.gregor herrmann1-0/+1
autopkgtest-pkg-perl's syntax.t skips the syntax check of .pm files if a package has Suggests: and there's no explicit skip list (on the assumption that some will fail because they need module from the packages in Suggests:). Add a debian/tests/pkg-perl/skip-syntax file with a dummy entry to allow syntax.t to check all real files. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>
2017-07-15autopkgtest-pkg-perl: add debian/tests/pkg-perl/use-name.gregor herrmann1-0/+1
autopkgtest-pkg-perl's use.t tries to use() the main module of a perl distribution by getting the name from META.json or META.yml. If they don't exist, it needs some help by putting the name in debian/tests/pkg-perl/use-name. In this case where there is no clear "main" module, an important one like Debian::Debhelper::Dh_Lib is chosen. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>

2017-07-15Dh_Lib: Make pkgfile ignore .debhelper filesNiels Thykier1-1/+3
When we generate a maintscript, it ends up as debian/<pkg>.<script>.debhelper. This means that pkgfile(<pkg>, <script>) will now trigger the "expensive" case for architecture dependent scripts for any generated script. This patch special cases the ".debhelper" extension and thereby avoid this overhead. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>

2017-07-12Re-instate bug compatibility to fix #867866Niels Thykier6-8/+34
Previous versions of debhelper had "interesting" way of interpreting arguments where it split them on space. This was mistakenly "corrected" in 10.6 when debhelper started to use bsd_glob (that does not split on spaces). To resolve this, manully split arguments like the original code would (effectively) have done so packages are unaffected by it. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>

2017-07-12dh_installman: Remove compressed manpages after reencodingSven Joachim2-1/+6
Since commit f9999ffaa5 dh_installman would inadvertently not remove compressed manpages after reencoding and thereby uncompressing them. This is not usually a problem since dh_compress takes care of it later, but if there are multiple hardlinks for the same file dh_compress fails in this situation.
