Launchpad itself

Build failure (dpkg-buildpackage died)

Asked by Sundar Nagarajan

I get the following error:

dpkg-buildpackage
-----------------

Command: dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -mLaunchpad Build Daemon <email address hidden> -b -rfakeroot
dpkg-buildpackage: info: source package linux-upstream
dpkg-buildpackage: info: source version 6.4.1ubuntu6
dpkg-buildpackage: info: source distribution jammy
 dpkg-source --before-build .
dpkg-buildpackage: info: host architecture amd64
dpkg-checkbuilddeps: error: Unmet build dependencies: bc debhelper kmod cpio
dpkg-buildpackage: warning: build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting
dpkg-buildpackage: warning: (Use -d flag to override.)

Why are these unmet dependencies:
bc debhelper kmod cpio

They are standard packages in the Ubuntu repo.

Please provide a link to the full build log - the interesting bit of it isn't in what you quoted.

Hi COlin,

Thanks for your response.
The buildlog link is below.

https://launchpad.net/~sundar-nagarajan/+archive/ubuntu/cherrytux-test/+build/26379261/+files/buildlog_ubuntu-jammy-amd64.linux-upstream_6.4.1ubuntu6_BUILDING.txt.gz

After asking the question, my brain fog cleared and I realized that those
packages were not part of my source package Build-Depends clause - some
programmatic bug made them disappear.

Once I added them to the Build-Depends, the build worked fine.

Thanks again
