debmake help

1999-05-08 Thread roddie

I'm experimenting with making my first .deb.

The howto's tell me to run build. I can find build anywhere. I have all
the packages. debmake, dpk-dev, dh-make, debhelp but I can't find it.

What am I missing.

'build' changed its name in version 2.0.0 of the devscripts package to 
'debuild'.  Try installing the devscripts package, if you haven't
already, and reading its README file.

Hey, Doug, do you mind if I push the Emergency Booth Self-Destruct Button?
Oh, sure, Dave, whatever...you _do_ know what that does, right?

In potato there is a package called packaging-manual.  More up to date in
many ways.  dh-* scripts are in favor now, the debmake/debstd is fading away.
