Files not installed

[Conrad Steenberg]

= SRU Reasoning =
== Impact ==
The package is unusable for everyone.

== Development Fix ==
Synced 1.5.0-4

== Stable Fix ==
Attached. A minimal version of 1.5.0-4 including only the .install files.

== Test Case ==
Run hgview, if it exists we've fixed the issue :)

== Regression Potential ==
Couldn't get much worse than it already is.

= Original Report =

/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/hgview

This bug is ubuntu specific, the corresponding packages in Debian are complete (http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/hgview/filelist)

I can confirm this bug, hgview is not available after upgrading to 12.04.

Workaround: use packages from logilab

http://download.logilab.org/production/sid/hgview-common_1.5.0-3_all.deb
http://download.logilab.org/production/sid/hgview_1.5.0-3_all.deb

[Alexandre Fayolle - camptocamp (alexandre-fayolle-c2c)]

The following files found in the logilab Debian repository are not part of the .diff.gz file in Ubuntu, therefore dh_install does nothing.

* hgview-common.install
* hgview-curses.install
* hgview.install

Apart from that (and an added unused file toto), the source package are identitical.

A new upload of the source package with the 3 missing files added:

Should be fixed in 1.5.0-4. Sorry about that. This should also be fixed in precise, but I'm not sure how to go about that.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package hgview - 1.5.0-4

---------------
hgview (1.5.0-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Rebuild the source package with the .install files so Ubuntu doesn't get
    empty binary packages (LP: #929741). Oops.

Hello Conrad, or anyone else affected,

Accepted hgview into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

[Conrad Steenberg (conrad-steenberg)]

Works fine here, thanks!

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package hgview - 1.5.0-3ubuntu0.1

---------------
hgview (1.5.0-3ubuntu0.1) precise-proposed; urgency=low

  * Add missing debian/*.install files to avoid shipping empty binary packages
    (LP: #929741).
