Thanks for noticing!

Olly also saw it, and some people have already discussed on IRC.

The reason is simple:

# /usr/bin/ld: cannot find crti.o: No such file or directory
# collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
# 
# ATTENTION: It apperars 'gcc' is not a working compiler, please make
# sure all necessary packages are installed.

use.t runs '/usr/bin/perl -w -M"Alien::wxWidgets" -e 1 2>&1'
in a minimal chroot, libalien-wxwidgets-perl depends on gcc [0] but not
libc6-dev (which contains crti.o) …

We haven't decided yet what's the best way out:
- skip use.t
- s/gcc/g++/ (which would pull in libc6-dev at the cost of adding
  more dependencies for reverse dependencies of libwx-perl)
- and/or some more refined solutions around libwx-perl's runtime
  dependencies

I hope that either the night shift fixes the issue one way or
another, or we'll come to a conclusion tomorrow :)


Cheers,
gregor
