The dh-make package is more sensible. You still have to go over the output by hand, of course, or we maintainers would be out of jobs. :) Cheers, -- Colin Watson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

howto for compiling of deb packages
Hello I have to know how you can build deb packages from source. Could somebody tell me if there exists an apt-get(able) doc package that introduces me in the topic of compiling your own deb packages from source? Or if someone of you know links/howtos etc. with information about building debian packages, let me know, too. Thanks in advance for helping me Roland Wegmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It's not intended for making debs you could distribute to other people, but for installing from source on your own systems, checkinstall may be what you're looking for: $ apt-cache show checkinstall Package: checkinstall Priority: optional Section: admin Installed-Size: 132 Maintainer: Matt Hope [EMAIL PROTECTED] Architecture: all Version: 1.5.3-1 Depends: installwatch ( 0.6) Filename: pool/main/c/checkinstall/checkinstall_1.5.3-1_all.deb Size: 34260 MD5sum: 1e4eb5a8c1329a9f199e1cbb63f65cca Description: installation tracker CheckInstall keeps track of all the files created or modified by your installation script (make install make install_modules, setup, etc), builds a standard binary package and installs it in your system giving you the ability to uninstall it with your distribution's standard package management utilities. -- Lance Simmons [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
