actually it is : I read the source, and dh_install -Xfoo creates that find stanza (through a debhelper shared pm) : find $DIRECTORY ! \( -regex .\*foo.\* \) .... wich makes foo a (posix) regexp. In vim packaging, we have some subdirectories of debian/ that we install in the vim-runtime debian package. To ease our developpement that is done in a team on alioth with svn, we use : dh_install -X.svn to avoid lintian complaints about .svn when we try a new package (not the one we upload of course !). Though, it had the nasty effect to skip a file named : debian/tmp/vim/runtime/syntax/svn.vim ... the *current* fix was to use : dh_install -X\\.svn IMHO, it's fine for -X switch taking a regex, but it should be specified in the man page. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O [EMAIL PROTECTED] OOO http://www.madism.org
