Marco Matarazzo commented on THRIFT-1825:
-----------------------------------------

Roger,
 
I didn't use it because I like to have control on the packaging steps, and 
creating a symbolic link it's not a big issue. Maybe moving the folder on his 
standard, expected position would make it easier to notice it's there (it took 
a while for me), but if it's "dirty" to your eyes (it's not something you 
actually mantain, in fact) you can just leave it the way it is, IMHO. I believe 
someone that is going to build a debian package can ignore how to create a 
debian folder from scratch, but for sure he must know how to use it when it's 
already there and should be able to hack around a bit and find it.

   BTW, I did exactly the same steps the script does, except I'm not deleting 
the debian link because I like to have it there, I'm adding -us -uc switches to 
dpkg-buildpackage as I can't/won't sign resulting packages, and I'm adding a -d 
for 0.8.0 under Ubuntu 12.04 because I know I can ignore the libmono-dev broken 
dependency warning as mono is there with just a different package name.

Just my two cents, with a big IMHO disclaimer on top of everything.
