Are you probably telling me that there is an unreleased into debian experimental a version of debian packaging scripts? But how do I download that debian SVN trunk? I only get: $ svn checkout "http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-mc/trunk/" svn: OPTIONS of 'http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-mc/trunk': 200 OK (http://svn.debian.org) and nothing is downloaded. Apparently in debian squeeze/sid/experimental there is exactly the same version of those scripts for amd64. I used the latest mc git from git clone git://midnight-commander.org/git/mc.git but with older debian packaging scripts. Here's what I've done: # apt-get source mc # rm -rf mc-4.7.0-pre1 # git clone git://midnight-commander.org/git/mc.git # mv mc mc-4.7.0-pre1 # gunzip mc_4.7.0-pre1-3.diff.gz # patch -p0 < mc_4.7.0-pre1-3.diff # cd mc-4.7.0-pre1 # chmod 755 debian/rules # echo "" > debian/patches/series # fakeroot debian/rules binary (during compilation copy in another terminal the mc.menu.sr) Also I tried another variant, without emptying `debian/patches/series` but only removing those patches that had conflicts. sorry for uncarefully written emails, I'm in real hurry. -- Janek Kozicki | _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
