[Build-common-hackers] Bug#376732: cdbs: pyversions call in python-distutils seems wrong

[Martin Pitt]

Package: cdbs
Version: 0.4.43
Severity: important

Hi!

python-distutils.mk currently calls 'pyversions -vr' in several
places, but this fails:

----- snip -----
$ pyversions -vr
usage: [-v] [-h] [-d|--default] [-s|--supported] [-i|--installed] [-r|--requested <version string>|<control file>]

pyversions: error: -r option requires an argument
----- snip -----

This is with the latest python-support and python-central package.
According to Matthias Klose, it should be called like
'pyversions -vr debian/control'.

I did this modification (see attached patch, which also fixes a
bashism), but still pyxdg fails to build:

cd . && pythonXS-Python-Version setup.py build --build-base="/home/martin/ubuntu/merges/pyxdg-0.15/./build"
/bin/sh: pythonXS-Python-Version: not found
make: *** [python-build-stamp-XS-Python-Version] Fehler 127

Now I'm lost. What is the issue here?

Thank you in advance for any hint!

Martin
