Package: dpatch Version: 2.0.29 Severity: minor Tags: patch Hello,
I've been told dpatch(1) has an example of how to change debian/rules. I learnt it from my sponsor, and I've noticed it's more hackish than necessary. This patch adds another option to the example using /usr/share/dpatch/dpatch.make. I've added it before the other example as I think people should use that one so that future improvements/fixes to the patch/unpatch targets in dpatch.make are automatically taken by the packages using it. Feel free to disagree with me and put it as a second example if you want. Best, Emilio
