First I tried to use it like I used deb-make: ran dh_make, edited some files in the debian dir, compiled the source code as I wanted, doing a 'touch build' and, in the end, tried to run './debian/rules binary', but that didn't work! I tried to figure out the rules file, but didn't understand how it worked. So, as a last resourt, I used the good old dpkg-buildpackage, but for some reason it broke at the part of documentation. I changed the debian/doc file and ran it again, but for my surprise it started ALL over again, even from ../configure!!! As far as I remember, with deb-make that didn't happen!! Where am I going wrong!? (I'm sure it's MY problem! ;) Thanks! =) -- Paladin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
