Invoking dpkg-scanpackages on Fedora 17 to build deb image meets such an error:
Can't locate Dpkg.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/loc
al/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr
/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5.) at tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/dpkg-sca
npackages line 27.
1. The dpkg-scanpackages is invoked at deb image creation time and it is built
by dpkg-native. The dpkg-scanpackages is a perl script and import module `Dpkg'.
2. The Dpkg.pm has been installed in perl's staging dir at dpkg-native compiling
time. Such as `tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/lib/perl-native/perl/Dpkg.pm'
3. The dpkg-native uses create_wrapper to relocate to perl-native if perl-native
has been built. If perl-native isn't built, it will use the host Dpkg as default.
4. If dpkg-native is built on a new build envionment which means perl-native doesn't
exist before, and the build system doesn't install dpkg (such as Fedora 17), the
dpkg-scanpackages could not work correctly.
5. Modify dpkg-native's depends, change `perl-native-runtime' to `perl-native', Let
perl-native automatically be built before building dpkg-native.
