Sure. Short version: It's the minimal code required to compile the code after the patch Full version: pgdesigner is distributed with sources, bytecode for gambas and an executable file which is an archive of the bytecode with a loader. While previously I did not have to compile anything (the distributed code was ok), since I have to include a 5-lines patch I have to rebuild the file. Since the build changes lots of binary files this creates a huge diff with all the binary files, and I tried to avoid that. So the changes are doing two things: - adding the build-deps and calling the gambas compiler - the lines to save the binary files are a quick hack to save the distributed binaries (which are included in the .orig.tar.gz) and avoid a failure when running debuild twice (unable to generate diff for binary files). This was done to generate a minimal diff which changes only source files and is easy to review. BR, Pierre -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
