make 4.3-4.1 triggers build failures

[Matthias Klose]

trying to rebuild cross-toolchain-base from
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/volatile/+packages

triggers a build failure:

[...]
START stamp-dir/init-binutils
tar -x -f /usr/src/binutils/binutils-2.37.tar.xz
set -e; cd binutils-2.37 ; cp -a /usr/src/binutils/debian/ . ; if [ -n "$(grep -v '^\#' /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/patches/binutils/series)" ]; then QUILT_PATCHES=/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/patches/binutils quilt --quiltrc /dev/null push -a; fi; rm -rf .pc

make: *** [debian/rules:215: stamp-dir/init-binutils] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage.pl: error: debian/rules build subprocess returned exit status 2

working around by omitting the -i option to env, or by setting PATH explicitly. Reverting to the version in the release pocket lets the c-t-b- build succeed.

copied the binary packages to
https://launchpad.net/~doko/+archive/ubuntu/toolchain

and removed them from impish-proposed

[Heinrich Schuchardt (xypron)]

Building cross-toolchain-base in ppa:xypron/merge-from-debian did not show the described failure. How can it be reproduced?

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

Removing block-proposed tag because this is now blocking the unrelated 4.3-4ubuntu2 upload.

[Julian Andres Klode (juliank)]

I rebuilt make-dfsg 4.1 without changes and cross-toolchain-base mostly finished building against it in the same bileto ppa, so this issue seems resolved, probably some toolchain bug?

This bug was fixed in the package make-dfsg - 4.3-4.1build1

---------------
make-dfsg (4.3-4.1build1) jammy; urgency=medium

  * No-change rebuild to hopefully address LP: #1939973
  * The -4.1 upload also restores the broken gmake symlink (LP: #989961)

make-dfsg (4.3-4.1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Non-maintainer upload.
  * make-guile: fix broken symlinks /usr/bin/gmake and
    /usr/share/man/man1/gmake.1.gz. (Closes: #986240)
