Bug Description

Binary package hint: scim-bridge

http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11150791/buildlog_ubuntu-hardy-i386.scim-bridge_0.4.14-1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz

Error:

pkgstriptranslations: processing control file: ./debian/scim-bridge-agent-dbgsym/DEBIAN/control, package scim-bridge-agent-dbgsym, directory ./debian/scim-bridge-agent-dbgsym
pkgstriptranslations: scim-bridge-agent-dbgsym does not contain translations, skipping
pkgstriptranslations: The following PO/POT files are empty. This is known to
cause trouble in the translation importer and generally indicates a package
bug:

./po/scim.pot
make: *** [binary-arch] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: failure: /usr/bin/fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2

It needs a cleanup of empty files in po/ directory.

The analysis is correct. However the POT file is intentionally left empty by upstream. Maybe the whole po/ directory should be removed.

Could someone test this fix ?

I can't active pkgbinarymangler (striptranslations) in my hardy pbuilder.

grep: debian/control: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/pkgstriptranslations: Error: not in source package directory

After I set it "true" at striptranslations.conf

Thanks

I don't know how to fix this bug now, and I've read your patch, you just remove the empty po files, I don't know whether it can work, and also it will change the upstream source tarball. Anyway, we may upload this fix for testing. :)

What is this referring to? Deleting empty files in po/ at build time (clean target in debian/rules) won't change the *.orig.tar.gz upstream tarball at all.

The Launchpad didn't close the bug automatically. It's been published and built fine in all ubuntu archs.
