I was able to create the patch based on your tip. Here's how I created working debs: # apt-get source autofs # tar xzf autofs_3.9.99-4.0.0pre10.orig.tar.gz # cd autofs-3.9.99-4.0.0pre10 # zcat ../autofs_3.9.99-4.0.0pre10-16.diff.gz | patch -p1 # cp -p /var/tmp/autofs-amd64.diff debian/patches/045_amd64 # chmod 755 debian/rules # dpkg-buildpackage I've attached the patch. If someone can verify that it works I guess I can attach it to a bug for autofs. Ryan
