Just use the .orig.tar.gz from the Debian source package and apply the patches as you would normally do with a regular tarball/source tree. No need to build the .deb; it wouldn't work anyway as you're using the GNUstep runtime. > Do You think the best way is : I could get the deb source, apply the > patch and make them by hand ? Yes, ignore all Debian docs -- they are irrelevant for your use case.
