Hi,

DEBIAN/control is automatically generated during package building and is used by the resulting .deb

debian/control is the one you write yourself, with Descriptions and Build-Depends and stuff.

Hope this clarifies things for you :)

Hello!

I'm reading the Policy Manual so I can correct any errors I have in my
control file before sending my program to Lucas Wall, that had accepted
to be my sponsor.

Reading this URL:

http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html

...I see that the source package control file must be in
"debian/control", and the binary control file must be in
"DEBIAN/control"...am I right? they are different directories? I didn't
knew that.

Regards,
