I'm attempting to package a piece of software I use a lot, and have to tweak the resulting file layout quite a bit under debian/tmp/ to get something resonable.
I thought I'd adjust the rules files, and run `dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us' again. Unfortunately, the `make distclean' step is causing each iteration to take a long time because of recompilation. I tried to comment-out `-make distclean' in the rules file to speed things up, but now I get stuff like: dpkg-source: cannot represent change to write.o: binary file contents changed dpkg-source: cannot represent change to gri: binary file contents changed dpkg-source: building gri in gri_2.1.17-1.dsc dpkg-source: unrepresentable changes to source I suppose the packager is comparing files to the orig.tar.gz and not liking the added compiled files. Is there a short-cut I can temporarily use to layout the file tree (What I don't want to build a final .deb file at this point, just get everything placed right (links, binaries, info files, html files, etc). -- Peter Galbraith, research scientist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Maurice Lamontagne Institute, Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada P.O.
