I have added a debian/gip.dirs file mentioning the usr/ directory. I find this much cleaner this way. Thank you for the suggestion. > Okay. Make yourself familiar with quilt then.

As the previous maintainer did a big part of the work, I prefer just having my name/email in the patches I have added, for further support/maintenance purposes. > b) You should use dch (and the other fancy tools from devscripts) for > changelog editing. dch automatically updates the timestamp and is > eager to keep the format straight. I just noticed by the timestamp > being September, 18th. :) I have updated the timestamp of debian/changelog using `dch -r`, mentioning the new debian/gip.dirs file. > So, if you want to change something again, do it now; run 'dch -r' and > re-upload to mentors. I'll sponsor your upload. I have just re-uploaded the package on m.d.n [1]. Thank you!
