[Bug 1239086] Re: refference to pbuilder-dist but it's not in the packaging-dev package

 

You are right, I've checked. I'm following your Guide on a virtual
server rented from a VPS-provider. Strangely enough, they install ubuntu
with "APT::Get::Install-Recommends "false";" in
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00InstallRecomends ... I'll ask them why they do
that.

I've checked it on my desktop system and the required packages will be
included on installing "packaging-dev"

Sorry about the false bug-report...

Title:
  refference to pbuilder-dist but it's not in the packaging-dev package

Status in Ubuntu Packaging Guide:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Unther the headline "Getting Set Up", there is a paragraphe "Install
  basic packaging software". In that paragraphe it is said that the
  packaging-dev will install all the nesscessery packages and more.

  A few lines further, there is a reference to the tool "pbuilder-dist"
  but this tool is not installed.

  The pbuilder-dist tool is found in the package ubuntu-dev-tools. Alsow
  the packages bzr-builddeb and apt-file are not covered in packaging-
  dev.

  Maybe it's a good idea to change the line:
  $ sudo apt-get install packaging-dev

  to:
  $ sudo apt-get install packaging-dev bzr-builddeb apt-file
