Hello.
I downloaded mjpegtools-1.9.0rc2 and tried to build a debian package
using the debian/* files inside the tarball.
This is what I did:
[ as root, install all the packages in build-depends ]
[ download mjpegtools-1.9.0rc2.tar.gz ]
mv mjpegtools-1.9.0rc2.tar.gz mjpegtools_1.9.0.orig.tar.gz
tar xzvf mjpegtools_1.9.0.orig.tar.gz
mv mjpegtools-1.9.0rc2 mjpegtools-1.9.0
cd mjpegtools-1.9.0
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us
and this is what happened:
dpkg-buildpackage: source package is mjpegtools
dpkg-buildpackage: source version is 1.7.0-1
dpkg-buildpackage: source changed by Kawamata/Hitoshi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

make: *** [binary-arch] Error 1
My machine is a powerpc machine running Debian testing (aka etch).
Suggestions:
1. dpkg-buildpackage believes the package is version 1.7.0-1 because
of the first changelog entry in debian/changelog. Please put something
like 1.9.0-0. You can also use 1.9.0-1~rc2, but the new ~ operator is
only supported in Debian etch (future Debian 4.0, to be released soon),
so there might be issues for people trying to build the package under
Debian 3.1 (the current stable distribution).
Suggestion for debian/changelog:
mjpegtools (1.9.0-0) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.

2. Compatibility levels before 4 are deprecated.
Please use "debhelper (>= 4)" in debian/control (and control.in)
and use "export DH_COMPAT=4" in debian/rules.
Unfortunately, I don't think this will fix the real error.
Suggestions welcome.
Thanks.
