If you're trying to do what I think you're trying to do, you'll want to do the following steps (you'll need to read some documentation, such as the developers reference and some man pages, to get the specifics): * Install the source package using 'apt-get source' * Add your file to the package somewhere * Modify debian/rules (or possibly one of the debhelper config files if it's using debhelper) to install your file at a particular location * Bump the package version using dch -v * Rebuild using dpkg-buildpackage * Install your newly built package with dpkg If you want to supply a concrete example, I'm happy to discuss specifics on the list. -- Matthew Palmer, Debian Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
