[Pkg-scicomp-devel] Bug#565121: opencv: FTBFS with python 2.6 because of reference to site-packages in .install file

[Fabrice Coutadeur]

Package: opencv
Version: 1.0.0-6.1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Justification: fails to build from source
User: debian-python at lists.debian.org
Usertags: python2.6 origin-ubuntu jaunty ubuntu-patch

Hi,

When building your package for python 2.6, I'm getting this error:
dh_install --sourcedir=debian/tmp --list-missing -Xlicense.txt -X.pyc -X.pyo
dh_install: python-opencv missing files (/usr/lib/python*/site-packages/opencv/*.py), aborting
make: *** [install] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: /usr/bin/fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2

This is because python 2.6 is using dist-packages instead of site-packages. The
attached patch update the instlal file, changing site-packages to *-packages.

Thanks,
Fabrice

In Ubuntu, we've applied the attached patch to achieve the following:

  * Update debian/python-opencv.install for Python 2.6 dist-packages install
    location 

We thought you might be interested in doing the same.
