Bug Description

rsync 3.2.1-1ubuntu1 has been blocked in proposed due to a problem when invoking configure.sh inside the debian/tests/upstream-tests script:

autopkgtest [18:04:18]: @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ summary
upstream-tests FAIL stderr: configure.sh: WARNING: you should use --build, --host, --target
Exit request sent.

The problem is that configure.sh is being executed like this:

./configure.sh "$CROSS_COMPILE"

in this scenario, $CROSS_COMPILE is an empty variable, which means that this will evaluate to:

./configure.sh ""

which will trigger the autotools warning above. The easy solution here is to just remove the quotes.

I'm working on this.

---------------
rsync (3.2.1-1ubuntu2) groovy; urgency=medium

  * d/t/upstream-tests: Don't quote $CROSS_COMPILE when invoking
    configure.sh. When we do it, the script will mistakenly generate
    a warning to stderr saying that "you should use --build, --host,
    --target", which will make the test fail. (LP: #1887572)
