[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#884813: xfce4-panel: make distclean deletes docs/references/html/, which is not regenerated

[Andreas Beckmann]

Source: xfce4-panel
Version: 4.13.2-1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Hi,

xfce4-panel/experimental fails to build twice in a row. (I didn't test
the version in sid, it probably has the same problems.)
The first build succeeds, the subsequent 'debian/rules clean' runs
'make distclean' which deletes 'docs/references/html/', but that tree is
not regenerated during the second build. Installation is skipped, but
the build finally fails for dh_install:

   dh_install -O--parallel
dh_install: Cannot find (any matches for) "usr/share/gtk-doc/html/libxfce4panel-2.0" (tried in ., debian/tmp)


Some excerpts from the attached buildlog from pbuilder --twice:

There is no echoed command that deletes the html directory :-(

but docs/references/Makefile contains:

distclean-local:
        @rm -rf xml html $(REPORT_FILES) $(DOC_MODULE).pdf \
            $(DOC_MODULE)-decl-list.txt $(DOC_MODULE)-decl.txt

            rm -f $(SETUP_FILES) $(DOC_MODULE).types; \
        fi

libxfce4ui, libxfce4util seem to have the same problem.
