Nope. It just undoes everything that the automake or its Makefiles (ideally all) created. That's it. The way to clean a repo quickly and specifically for git is "git clean -d -f" (directory trees too). > -------------------------------------------------- > dh_fixperms -v >> /home/charles/amanda/build/debian/dpkg.log 2>&1 > # fix perms manually > chown -R amandabackup:disk debian/*/var/lib/* > chown: invalid user: ‘amandabackup:disk’ I still have no idea why the initial build needs the users that are actually created *in* the pre-install script. It's just how it was done, apparently. > I can add those to my script. However, I wonder: the traditional > debian user is backup:backup. Should we not be using that? Tradition in this case has been missing for over 5 years of time. Two years of inactivity. The disk group is a pretty good one too, and the 3.3.9 distro of Amanda is a different beast than 3.5.1. I could look into seeing if we could grandfather the older build process... but that's as easy as anyone else here can do it. It just takes looking up the current debian source package and looking at its scripts and the difference from what we have. > Also, I noticed some messages about g_thread_* functions being > deprecated.

There really isn't much to put in amanda-common that I know of (i.e. a core for multiple choices).

Does amanda ever use that > user? I don't think amanda uses ssh as a backup device. It's probably fine without.
