  • Bug#1105250: camlp5: FTBFS with make --shuffle=reverse: make[3]: *** [M

    Hi,

    GNU Make now has a --shuffle option that simulates non-deterministic ordering of target prerequisites. See https://trofi.github.io/posts/238-new-make-shuffle-mode.html and also previous work in Debian by Santiago Vila: https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/make-shuffle/

    This package fails to build with make --shuffle=reverse.
    This is likely to be caused by a missing dependency in
    debian/rules or an upstream Makefile.

    More information about this mass bug filing is available at https://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/FTBFS/Shuffle

    Relevant part (hopefully):
    make[4]: Entering directory '/build/reproducible-path/camlp5-8.03.01/main' Makefile:52: update target 'compare' due to: target does not exist
    for j in camlp5; do \
    if cmp $j ../boot/$j; then :; else exit 1; fi; \
    done
    camlp5 ../boot/camlp5 differ: byte 817809, line 6128
    make[4]: Leaving directory '/build/reproducible-path/camlp5-8.03.01/main' make[3]: *** [Makefile:126: compare_test] Error 1 shuffle=reverse


    The full build log is available from: http://qa-logs.debian.net/2025/05/05/shuffle/reverse/camlp5_8.03.01-1_unstable_reverse.log

    If you reassign this bug to another package, please mark it as 'affects'-ing this package. See https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control#affects
