Hi there,

Has anyone here had some experience creating a Debian / Ubuntu package? I
am trying to backport the lammps package (
http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/lammps) from Ubuntu 12.10 (Quantal) to
Ubuntu 12.04

I only need it for an unofficial basis - just need a .deb package for
convenience's sake when creating custom virtual machine images for
deployment to IaaS platform.

Following the Ubuntu Packaging Guide at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide , I can build successfully, except
when I try to rebuild using the debuild command, I usually get this error:

dpkg-source: error: aborting due to unexpected upstream changes, see
/tmp/lammps_0~20120615.gite442279-1.diff.aie32n
dpkg-source: info: you can integrate the local changes with dpkg-source
--commit
dpkg-buildpackage: error: dpkg-source --include-binaries -i -b
lammps-0~20120615.gite442279 gave error exit status 2


Running 'make clean-all' at the src directory still does not solve the
problem. Is there any way to completely clean off all the files that were
generated during the build process, or to ask debuild to ignore any
differences in the source files?


Best regards,
Hanxue
