OK, after a bunch of fumbling around, i seem to have gotten the repo i'm using in shape to where i can use svn-buildpackage to create the .deb. Could you update to it and see if it works for you? > FWIW, i'm down to only 4 errors (all "different width due to > prototype") using the warning flags Jörg suggested, so i'm > relatively close to a "cleanup" patch i can send upstream. I've also committed the changes that leave me with only 4 build warnings (these would go upstream, hopefully, but could also be released with a new debian revision if you think that's preferable). It's not clear to me if there's a nifty way to coax a package maintained with svn-buildpackage into using dpatch or quilt -- It always feels wrong to commit raw diffs to a revision control system (though i've done it before), and it seems like a tool like svn-buildpackage could manipulate its internal diffs to produce something reasonable somehow. Maybe that's asking too much, though. I'm open to suggestions and pointers, as usual. Regards, --dkg
