I do not think so. I just wanted to find 2.7 version. > Another Problem: the upstream source tarballs are divided.

One for the program > source, one for the documentation and one for the test files? There is an opportunity to use multiple tarballs [1], but I never used this option. You should decide, how will it better for you to maintain the package. [1] https://wiki.debian.org/Projects/DebSrc3.0#How_to_use_multiple_upstream_tarball_in_3.0_.28quilt.29_format.3F But for the first upload I would use just a plain tarball of 2.8p1 version, which is available on the website and d/watch can easily download it. But, again, you should decide it yourself. Cheers Anton -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
