I'm merging with the already filed bug report, because the request seems confused. The time spent when building kernel packages rests in dpkg-deb not dpkg-source, and native source packages or *.(debian|diff).* source packaging do not tend to be huge, so I'll assume the request was for binary and not source packages. Thus merging the requests. Regards, Guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
