Identifier: ftbfs_due_to_f-file-prefix-map
Suites: unstable / trixie / bookworm / bullseye / buster / experimental
Description: An example of failure related to this are programs that expect
__FILE__ to expand to some absolute path, but instead finding themselves
a relative one.
.
In our unstable and experimental build systems we export
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=reproducible=+all
that makes dpkg-buildflags enable the reproducible/fixfilepath feature, adding
-ffile-prefix-map=BUILDPATH=.
to CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, OBJCFLAGS, OBJCXXFLAGS, GCJFLAGS, FFLAGS and FCFLAGS.
