I am converting the joe package to the new source format and have run into a strange problem. The first time I run dpkg-buildpackage the .orig tree is tarred up ok. The second time I run it, it tries to use the tar.gz file created in the previous run but fails, giving:
dpkg-source -b joe-2.8 dpkg-source: building joe using existing joe_2.8.orig.tar.gz dpkg-source: building joe using existing joe_2.8.orig.tar.gz dpkg-source: error: tarfile `joe_2.8.orig.tar.gz' contains unexpected object listed by tar as `-rw-r--r-- root/users 0 Jan 22 22:45 1995 joe-2.8.orig/jmacsrc link to joe-2.8.orig/.jmacsrc', expected `joe-2.8.orig/jmacsrc' dpkg-source: building joe using existing joe_2.8.orig.tar.gz Now, if I untar the orig.tar.gz I get neither of the described files and the build goes fine.
