zoneminder 1.28.1 debian rules wont compile

[salatiel]

I just download v1.28.1.tar.gz, moved the distros/debian to the correct place and tried dpkg-buildpackage.
It fails with:

Was anyone able to create the package for debian 7.8 ?

i successfully packaged a .deb after editing /usr/src/zoneminder/distros/debian/patches/series to remove the patch..

Code: Select all

#01_vendor-perl.diff

the .deb installed

I was on IRC yesterday and they seem to have trouble with perl directories...

anyway, my installation works well without it.
