revisit pkg-kde-tools need in bionic
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

pkg-kde-tools' --with kf5 dh sequence currently doesn't list-missing or lintian because we have the kubuntu version and they didn't hold on to the patch.
Somewhat related to T9306. A more useful option may be to pursue dh_missing and dh_lintian as central actors (latter isn't run by default AFAIK though)

[09:22] <acheronuk> sitter: kubuntu have patched pkg-kde-tools to get the list-missing and lintian back with dh --with kf5
[09:22] <sitter> acheronuk: are you sure that's working because we simply use the kubuntu pkg-kde-tools
[09:23] <acheronuk> sitter: I mean in cosmic

T9306 is moving ahead as a global replacement for list-missing. New game plan here is to review the original delta between us and debian and decide if we need any of the other bits.

Having reviewed the delta it looks largely the same. As it turns out list-missing wasn't ever enabled for kf5.pm? :O

Unchanged list-missing should be working as-is though. If/when dhmk switches to dh_missing that should work out of the box after T9306. If I am not mistaken the kf5 sequence will always include dh_missing as the default dh sequence is always applied unless overridden (which seems not the case)
