Well, no, this is not the right thing to do, debian/control should not be in the repo, as it is a generated file. I guess the right thing to do would be to fix svn-buildpackage to know how to generate the debian/control file, or do it in steps, which i believe is possibly with svn-buildpackage. Notice that this will play hell with cdbs based packages, which cannot use the standard debian/control target for pure brokeness. Stefano, you use both svn-buildpackage and the ocamlinit target, how do you handle this ? Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
