Docbook XML manpages and bash-completion.
Dear all, I wrote many Docbook XML manpages for command-line programs packaged for Debian-Med. I was just wondering if somebody knew a way to turn the OPTIONS section into something which can be used to enable bash completion ?

Re: Best way to move from .diff.gz patches to dpatch

There is no easy way, but you can possibly make your life a little easier using mc: Just go into the .diff.gz file (select it in mc, hit return), and you see the whole diff in a filesystem view, where every change in a file is displayed as file.diff.

Passing variables to a Makefile
Dear mentors, in a package I prepare, there is the following line in a source/Makefile: CPPFLAGS=-O3 -funroll-loops -march=i686 -mfpmath=sse -msse -mmmx This is obviously not convenient for building on many platforms, so I decided to override it with the following command in debian/rules: CPPFLAGS='$(CFLAGS)' $(MAKE) --environment-overrides --directory=source However, I am quite unexperienced with makefiles, and my gut feeling tells me that I may be doing something wrong... Can somebody tell me ?
