If we have specifically formed virtual requirements in the BuildRequires list, e.g. perl(Module/Build.pm), it's impossible to build the package via hasher. Output log shows that hasher incorrectly passes build requirements to the underlying apt system: ------------------------------ rebuild: perl-Mail-Sender-0.8.10-alt1.src.rpm: fetched build dependencies. rebuild: perl-Mail-Sender-0.8.10-alt1.src.rpm: calculated build dependencies: perl-devel perl(Module/Build.pm) install: changed working directory to `/mnt/old/home/alex/RPM/hsh' Reading Package Lists... Building Dependency Tree... E: Couldn't find package perl(Module install: failed to calculate package file list. install: Failed to generate package file list. -------------------------------- hasher version: 1.0.34-alt1 I should mention that [some] previous versions of hasher didn't had this bug (otherwise I couldn't upload the package mentioned to Sisyphus :-)) Steps to Reproduce: One can try to rebuild the mentioned package via hasher.
Please take my excuses. The problem I described is caused by a local repository misconfiguration.
