Bug Description

Binary package hint: fbterm

This bug was sent manually, but the text was written to a template, as I have several similar bugs to report today. Please see my recent bug reports for a list, or bug #391165 for the root cause.

Versions 1.3-2 and 1.4-2 of fbterm have a backslash at the end of the line(s) in the "Build-Dependencies" section of debian/control. There shouldn't be a backslash in the area(s) marked by ***asterisks***:

Build-Depends: cdbs, debhelper (>= 7), autotools-dev, libfreetype6-dev,***\***
               libfontconfig1-dev, libgpm-dev, pkg-config, dpatch

This is currently allowed because of bug #391165. However, fbterm will fail to build once that bug has been fixed. This bug can be fixed by removing all end-of-line backslashes.

Version 1.5-1 in Debian fixes this. Would be better to avoid Ubuntu changes and keep it synced. It's not documented in the changelog, but the maintainer said that it was fixed (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=535297).
