In Ubuntu Precise the script 'get-build-deps' is no longer present

[bas-t]

Replace the call to the script with a direct 'apt-get build-dep' to get things working again.

[superm1]

That won't reflect dependencies that change in packaging but aren't yet in
the distro its ran on.

Where did get build deps disappear to in precise?

You are right. I closed the pull request and installed the script manually.
I will try to find the script in Precise. When I find it I will let you
know.

get-build-deps has dissapeared to /dev/null in favour of mk-build-deps, which is part of the new ubuntu-dev-tools.

EDIT: mk-build-dep is part of devscripts. Sorry, my mistake

see:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools/+bug/158108
It has to be tested.
Hope this helps.

By the way, it dissapeared in Oneiric not just Precise.
See the changelog:

Ah, thanks for the bug pointer. Yeah this needs to be sorted out then to
be able to support both. If you come up with a diff to support
mk-build-deps, please feel free to submit another pull request!

That should be easy, according to the devs "mk-build-deps -ir" is
equivalent to "get-build-deps".
I will look into this somewhewre this week.

I wrote a frame script.
Maybe you want to review it?

you can see it here: http://www.lursen.org/patch/script

[bas-t]

I have another approach.
Just determine tehe version of devscripts that is available for a debian (based) distro
and go from there:

http://www.lursen.org/patch/script1

[superm1]

Can you submit as a patch instead of these scripts? You should be able to
use something far simpler like this to figure out the version:

dpkg-query -s devscripts | sed '/^Version:/!d; s/Version: //'
