The current method for getting the source code is from the git repository: https://github.com/luisibanez/fis-gtm You can clone it with: git clone https://github.com/luisibanez/fis-gtm.git and get in this branch: git checkout hackathonjune2012-brad We typically create the tar file by doing : git archive --prefix=fis-gtm_5.5-000/ HEAD |gzip > fis-gtm_5.5-000+git92-g81e6aa8.orig.tar.gz Then expanding this tar file in another directory: cd somewhereelse tar -xzf fis-gtm_5.5-000+git92-g81e6aa8.orig.tar.gz this creates a directory fis-gtm_5.5-000 then, inside that one we copy the "debian" directory from fis-gtm in SVN, and then, we have been doing : debuild At this point we are working with Brad on fixing some of the issues related to locale.
