Does this still happen on the latest releases @tdslot?

[tdslot]

I tested with podman and lima. Yes it happen. But with docker no issue with that.

[hwittenborn]

Oh, it looks like it's considering .* to be a directory because it didn't find anything else. I have no clue why this is only happening in podman and lima, but I'll get a fix going shortly.

[hwittenborn]

Actually I'd like to test one more thing - Could you run ls -a from that directory you originally ran ls -A in your podman and lima containers so I can see what pops up?

[hwittenborn]

Closing since there hasn't been a response. Feel free to reopen if you're still having the issue.

Hi, I am experiencing the same problem right now but it is happening for all packages for me.

For now I am aliasing makedeb to LIBMAKEPKG_LINT_PACKAGE_DOTFILES_SH=0 makedeb

but i think setting nullglob would be better so it still do check.
