of course another 'fink rebuild foo' will delete the source directory. if you want fink only to do parts of unpacking/patching/compiling/installing you would have to edit Engine.pm. this is NOT really recommended but i tell you anyway...
/sw/lib/perl5/Fink/Engine.pm
look for the following:
if ($is_build) {
$package->phase_unpack();
$package->phase_patch();
$package->phase_compile();
$package->phase_install();
$package->phase_build();
}here you can comment out the phases you don't want. ugly trick, though...
this might do as well for you:
edit /sw/etc/fink.conf so it includes the following lines:
KeepBuildDir: true KeepRootDir: true
this will keep both: the build directory (where you'd type make) and the install directory (where fink installs the files before building a deb)
hope that helps

I'm doing some development of an existing package.
I'd like to modify the source in place and then have fink "re-build and
install" without re-extracting the source. How do I do that?
