No, just network-manager: sudo apt-get build-dep network-manager apt-get source network-manager cd network-manager-0.9.8.0 First of all I would suggest you to check that original package can be build without any errors. For dpkg-buildpackage I had to disable test (debian/rules file, --enable-tests=no instead of --with-tests in ./configure invocation) fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc Successful build will finish with .deb files created in the parent directory.. Edit .c files as described in Comment 114. It is better to edit debian/changelog file as well and add an additional entry to the top of the file with another version suffix. This step will allow to avoid confusion which package is installed. Again fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc (option -nc can be added to compile only updated files) You should have new .deb file that can be installed with sudo dpkg -i ../<exact name of network-manager_0.9.8*.deb> The details can be found in http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/build.en.html -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1073433 Title: Ext4 corruption associated with shutdown of Ubuntu 12.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/upstart/+bug/1073433/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
