deb-make creates rules files that use debstd, which doesn't offer much control over what it does (not to mention that it sometimes violates policy). I recommend debhelper instead, there is a 'dh-make' package in experimental (may be still stuck in incoming) which works nearly the same as deb-make except it uses debhelper in its rules files. build is fine, it's merely a wrapper around dpkg-buildpackage. -- Joel "Espy" Klecker <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://web.espy.org/> Debian GNU/Linux Developer...................<http://www.debian.org/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
