compilation error latest GIT

Added by andrea boh over 10 years ago

Hello, i'm trying to compiling the latest git and packaging on debian squeeze but i'm encountering this error when i run ./Autobuild.sh :

cp: cannot stat `README': No such file or directory
dh_installdocs: cp -a README debian/tvheadend/usr/share/doc/tvheadend returned exit code 1
make: *** [binary] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2

the same came with both: -t debian or -t precise-amd64

I had successfully compiled on this machine previously, i'm running tvh g63ac3be so this version has been compiled fine!

Thanks in advance for your help.

Adam made some changes to the general documents to reflect the ongoing licence changes. Looks like README has changed name and something's not been updated... revert one commit earlier (5fbe7a7e), hack around to update the file name or wait a bit, I think.

A quick Google suggests dh_installdocs is part of the debhelper installation package, and it's just looking for a README file that isn't there any more.
