[Build-common-hackers] Bug#506602: cdbs: Setting ANT_ARGS_<package> does not work.

[Vincent Smeets]

Package: cdbs
Version: 0.4.52
Severity: normal

Hallo,

I have a rules file that includes class/ant.mk and I want to pass the
binary package name to the ant script. I have defined the settings as
defined in the file ant-vars.mk at line 76.
	ANT_ARGS_abc = -Dpackage.binary=abc
	ANT_ARGS_def = -Dpackage.binary=def

These settings are never working. Ant is called with the following
substitution:
	$(ANT_ARGS_$(cdbs_curpkg))
And cdbs_curpkg is defined by:
	cdbs_curpkg = $(filter-out %/,$(subst /,/ ,$@))
This substitution works with targets like:
	build/abc::
or
	install/abc::
But ant is called for targets like:
	debian/stamp-ant-build:
and
	common-install-impl::
and
	debian/stamp-ant-check:

The substitution only works in case the last path-part of the target is
the name of the package. It works in debhelper.mk but its not correctly
implemented in ant.mk.

Regards,
Vincent Smeets
