[Build-common-hackers] DEB_DESTDIR

[Stefan Pfetzing]

Hi folks,

I'm using cdbs to package lsh-utils (since the last upload), but I  
today encountered a problem, that my package won't build on a machine  
where no lsh-utils package was installed.

So I was looking for the reason, and I found thing like:

--- snip ---
test -z "/usr/bin" || mkdir -p -- . "/home/dreamind/src/lsh/cdbs/lsh- 
utils-2.0.1cdbs/debian/tmp//usr/bin"
   /usr/bin/install -c 'lsftp' '/home/dreamind/src/lsh/cdbs/lsh- 
utils-2.0.1cdbs/debian/tmp//usr/bin/lsftp'
--- snap ---

(notice the //)

After changing buildvars.mk from:

DEB_DESTDIR = $(CURDIR)/debian/$(strip $(DEB_PACKAGES))/
and
DEB_DESTDIR = $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp/

to:
DEB_DESTDIR = $(CURDIR)/debian/$(strip $(DEB_PACKAGES))
and
DEB_DESTDIR = $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp

my package build fine.

bye

Stefan
