If that's a reference to my first post to this discussion, it's not accurate. I don't care about standardizing package formats, but I do want to have one, simple sequence of operations to work on all packages. Specifically I want "dpkg-source -x" to unpack a source package so that it is ready for modification, and "dpkg-source -b" to build a new source package after it's been edited. Patch systems can and should conform to that, since it's important for those doing archive-wide QA. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
