When I needed to build a package from debian sources I used to: bzcat ../debianpackage.diff.gz | patch -p1 from within the original source.Then: debuild.And everything went smoothly.
Now I do (and does not work):
>From within the original package sources directory tree:
tar xfz ../debianpackage.debian.tar.gz (the patch tree)
A debian directory appears within the original sources top level directory
and I do:
debuild or
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
And does not work.What am I doing wrong?
