It's not totally clear to me how to make a good use of this. Let's assume I have an existing .deb obtained via packages.debian.org (or an .so from that .deb), and I have a source tree checked out from GNUstep's Subversion. Let's assume I have no 'package tree' (i.e. one with debian/ directory) at a particular time.
What would you like me to do to prepare the source tree (do I need to obtain the debian/ directory, for example), and what would you like me to execute in order to validate that the ABI didn't break? Thanks!
