<p class="MsoNormal">David Ing tried building and packaging GStreamer using cerbero v1.12.4 which is before it was ported to Python 3.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">His experience is documented in the message: <a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/gstreamer-devel/2018-April/067562.html">
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/gstreamer-devel/2018-April/067562.html</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">David found that the paths in the packages were not under the /usr/local prefix as is expected but were instead the paths that we used during the build.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This indicates a problem with the packaging phase (this is the “generic packager for distro debian”).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve reproduced David’s scenario using a clean ubuntu:xenial docker container and get similar results in that the Debian packages produced install under /root/git/cerbero instead of /usr/local.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is anyone aware of the root cause of this problem?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Are the packages actually being built for the /usr/local prexfix?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If not, how does one tell cerbero what prefix to build for?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Does cerbero have any packagers that do work?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve kept my docker containers and can explore them further if people have suggestions.<o:p></o:p></p>
