Bug#484203: 3dchess: FTBFS: Nonexistent build-dependency: libxaw-headers

[Lucas Nussbaum]

Package: 3dchess
Version: 0.8.1-14
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: qa-ftbfs-20080602 qa-ftbfs
Justification: FTBFS on i386

Hi,

During a rebuild of all packages in sid, your package failed to build on
i386.

Relevant part:
> ** Using build dependencies supplied by package:
> Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 5), dpatch, libx11-dev, libxaw-headers, libxpm-dev, libxt-dev, x-dev, xaw3dg-dev
> Checking for already installed source dependencies...
> debhelper: missing
> Using default version 7.0.9
> dpatch: missing
> libx11-dev: missing
> libxaw-headers: missing
> libxpm-dev: missing
> libxt-dev: missing
> x-dev: missing
> xaw3dg-dev: missing
> Checking for source dependency conflicts...
> Reading package lists...
> Building dependency tree...
> Reading state information...
> Package libxaw-headers is not available, but is referred to by another package.
> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
> is only available from another source
> However the following packages replace it:
>   libxaw7-dev
> E: Package libxaw-headers has no installation candidate

The full build log is available from:
   http://people.debian.org/~lucas/logs/2008/06/02

This rebuild was done with gcc 4.3 instead of gcc 4.2, because gcc 4.3
is now the default on most architectures (even if it's not the case on
i386 yet).  Consequently, many failures are caused by the switch to gcc
4.3.
If you determine that this failure is caused by gcc 4.3, feel free to
downgrade this bug to 'important' if your package is only built on i386,
and this bug is specific to gcc 4.3 (i.e the package builds fine with
gcc 4.2).

A list of current common problems and possible solutions is available at 
http://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/FTBFS . You're welcome to contribute!

About the archive rebuild: The rebuild was done on about 50 AMD64 nodes
of the Grid'5000 platform, using a clean chroot containing a sid i386
environment.  Internet was not accessible from the build systems.
