[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #45369] pkg build leads to duplication of PKG_ADD and PKG_DEL files

[Carnë Draug]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #45369 (project octave):

I have attached a simple package to exemplify the issue:


octave-gui:1> pkg install "test-bug45369.tar.gz" 
foo() was called
octave-gui:2> pkg build binary "test-bug45369.tar.gz"
foo() was called
octave-gui:3> pkg install "binary/test-bug45369-1.0.0.tar.gz"
foo() was called
'foo' undefined near line 2 column 1
error: called from
'/home/carandraug/octave/test-bug45369-1.0.0/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-api-v50+/PKG_ADD'
in file
/home/carandraug/octave/test-bug45369-1.0.0/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-api-v50+/PKG_ADD
near line 2, column 1


Inspection of the two tarballs will show:

1. no PKG_ADD files in the original source release.

2. a PKG_ADD directirve as comment in inst/foo.m

3. a PKG_ADD file at the root of the binary distribution (this file should not
have been created)

4. the error message shows that installation of the binary package, places the
PKG_ADD in the arch dependent directory.  Error is caused because foo() will
only be added to the path later.
