Hello all, I'm creating .debs of the oracle-xe rpm. Currently I'm able to create a .deb package by asking alien to generate (--generate) the package directory, modifying the oracle scripts to work with debian, and then running debian/rules binary within the alien generated directory.
This all works fine, but I was hoping the --patch option to alien would allow me to generate a patch so in the future I can do something like this: alien --to-deb --patch mypatchfile.patch --test --scripts oracle-xe.rpm This way I can create my patch file and send the patch to friends if they ever need to generate a working .deb of the oracle-xe rpm. Problem is I can't find any documentation explaining how this patch should be generated. So my question is this: How do I generate a patch file that will work with alien's --patch option?
