For a start, maybe you should install apt-src and follow its documentation - it's a convenient front-end to manage source packages (download, build, etc). You should also install the packages that apt-src "suggests", mainly "build-essentials". Generally - when you want extra information about a debian package "dpkg -L <packagename>" will list all files in that packages, and most of the times "/usr/local/share/<packagename>" holds extra info about it. --Amos -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
