build fails with bcg729 master

[juha-h]

Debian build works OK with bcg729 tag 1.0.4., which is three years old. So I tried with latest master and got configure error:

configure: exit 1
dh_auto_configure: ./configure --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --includedir=\${prefix}/include --mandir=\${prefix}/share/man --infodir=\${prefix}/share/info --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --disable-silent-rules --libdir=\${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --libexecdir=\${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --disable-maintainer-mode --disable-dependency-tracking --enable-static --enable-shared returned exit code 1
make[1]: *** [debian/rules:27: override_dh_auto_configure] Error 255

Please close if there is no intention to keep bcg729-deb up to date with bcg729 master.

So.....

There are no code changes other than some build config changes between 1.0.4 and 1.0.4-28-g9d24e2d. (And the following version change, which I'm not sure is effective yet.)

-cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0)
-project(bcg729 VERSION 1.0.4 LANGUAGES C)
+cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.1)
+project(bcg729 VERSION 1.1.0 LANGUAGES C)

I'm not sure why you'd want that version.

If there are actual changes, it might be worth to spend time/effort on this.

Some days ago they released version 1.1.0 as tag, which includes some of the fixes you added as dedicated patches. There might be other extensions, but did not checked in detail yet.

In which repo they was 1.1.0 tag released? This one https://github.com/ossobv/bcg729-deb only has v1.0.4-0osso3.

The upstream one: https://github.com/BelledonneCommunications/bcg729

Yes, tried with that and the bebian build fails the same way as before.

[juha-h]

The build process does not use autotools anymore:

Building by Autotools way is deprecated. Use [CMake][cmake-website] to configure the source code.

    cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<prefix> -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<search_prefixes>

So looks like debian/rules needs to be rewritten.

Yes, i gave it a quick try, was not working as well.

[juha-h]

It works with this kind very simple debian/rules:

#!/usr/bin/make -f

# Uncomment this to turn on verbose mode.
# export DH_VERBOSE=1

# Uncomment this to change the hardening options
export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS = hardening=+all

DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH ?= $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)

%:
    dh $@

Try with this:

https://github.com/juha-h/bcg729-deb

Probably not an issue anymore...
