Subject: Problems recompiling debian packages
Date: Tue, 2 Jun 1998 08:26:30 +0200 (MET DST)
Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.0.20

Since upgrading to hamm I have severe problems recompiling many packages,
it usually stops with something like:

parsechangelog/debian: error: unable to open substvars file debian/substvars: file not found
dpkg-gencontrol: error: syntax error in parsed version of changelog at line 0: empty file

Touching debian/substvars and removing the rm debian/substvars from the
clean target in debian/rules usually helps to get things compiled.

Yours, Florian Hars.

This bug must have been fixed ages ago, I can't reproduce it anymore.

Wichert.
