hi, i'm in progress of fixing up the whole of vrweb (i think i can close all the bugs! woo hoo), but am having some problems (probably something simple):
- I change the maintainer entry (i want to become a debeloper... how many times has someone come up with that one?) and try to run "dch -v 1.5-3" to change the version number from 1.5-2, but the editor put Fabien's name (automatically) at the end of my changes spot. i entered my stuff and name, saved but it exited with: dch: fatal error at line 283: Error editing the changelog: Illegal seek what am i supposed to do? just manually edit everything? - i noticed that the produced debian package (i just had to make one to see what happened, without all the changes stuff) has all its paths starting with '.', eg: -rwxr-xr-x root/root 2515880 1999-09-23 01:22:34 ./usr/X11R6/bin/vrweb whats that all about? - i noticed that the docs are all split up: drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 1999-09-23 01:22:30 ./usr/doc/vrweb/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 1999-09-23 01:22:30 ./usr/doc/vrweb/examples/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 1999-09-23 01:22:31 ./usr/share/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 1999-09-23 01:22:30 ./usr/share/doc/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 1999-09-23 01:22:35 ./usr/share/doc/vrweb/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 2442 1997-05-28 02:01:18 ./usr/share/doc/vrweb/README-Unix.gz i was going to look at correcting this, but i noticed that the debian-policy 3.0.1.1 (current right?) says that docs go in /usr/share/doc . thats not right is it? what about all this FHS stuff thats been flying around in debian-devel/debian-policy? have i missed something? hope someone can enlighten me... :) Paul
