# apt-get source FOO_BAR # apt-get build-dep FOO_BAR # mv -vi FOO_BAR-xy/ FOO_BAR-pq # wget FOO_BAR'S_NEW_SOURCE_FROM_UPSTREAM # tar xvjf FOO_BAR-... # cd FOO_BAR-... # gedit debian/changelog # gedit debian/rules # libtoolize --force --copy --automake # aclocal # autoreconf # debuild -b -us -uc # dpkg -i if this shouldn't work, try to compile the most common way, configure, make, make install, but replace make only or make and make install by checkinstall # ./configure # checkinstall --install=no # dpkg -i -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
