Of course, but it's a "useless" patch. You better remove that patch from the source when making the final package, because the patch would increase the package-source size. But if you then make a new package revision, you have to re-add this patch again. There should be an easier solution. Maybe only add a possibility to define one or more targets to run after creating the clean workspace. That's IMHO a clean and easy to use/implement solution. > That is, to have a .dpatch file whose purpose is to unpack the tarball > on 'patch' and delete the tree on 'unpatch'. But as I said: Such a patch would be big and it should not stay inside the package-source. Regards, Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
