I guess upstream primarily uses Windows/etc. Would it be possible to get a cmake configure flag added upstream so that this is a build-system issue? >> Why is override_dh_auto_configure needed?

Some other packages I downloaded patch CMakeCache.txt instead in > dh_configure. I preferred to call cmake properly instead. Hmm. Looking at the debhelper code, it adds this to the command-line for dh_auto_configure: -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr If that is the wrong way to get cmake to install to /usr then it would be great if you could file a bug to get this fixed. Also put a comment in debian/rules saying that this is a workaround, citing the bug URL. > Any advice on this? Should I simply put "(FLTK gui)" in the short description? Sounds reasonable. The fact that it uses FLTK is not relevant for the short description, so just (GUI) should do it. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
