I'm sorry for not being clear in the previous mail, I'll try to rephrase: problem: dh_md5sums excludes unwanted files because of #242834 (find -regex etc) my temporary (hackish) solution: append excluded files to DEBIAN/md5sums I just realized that this is really cdbs' fault because dh_md5sums and dh_builddeb are called together thus it is impossibile to hook, I'm reassigning the bug and see if cdbs' maintainers have a clue. thanks, filippo -- Filippo Giunchedi - http://esaurito.net PGP key: 0x6B79D401 random quote follows: All language designers are arrogant.
