He currently cannot due to personal circumstances (if I understood him correctly). Maybe the Debian-QT-Team could NMU kaffeine-0.6? It is proven to compile and it would be a perfect intermediate solution until kaffeine-0.7.1 gets packaged. I just ran "apt-get source -b -uc kaffeine" and dpkg'ed it. Worked (you need the build-deps, though). I can also upload it to "yet another repository" (apt-0.6 compatible) if there's a need for it.

I do not know your experience, but my experience is building packages as Debian maintainer during 4 years. I maintain several packages. And this means a *lot* of packages (given that we usually build other packages for NMUs, or backports for our own use). fakeroot did not manage to build only one package in this time: mozilla. Its build system was broken, and it was needed to build as root (due to a some file opertaion only able to do as root, if I recall right). So please do not spread false information. ;-) And it is not only my word. In the Debian Developer's Reference: A.Overview of Debian Maintainer Tools A.1. Core tools A.1.1. `dpkg-dev' A.1.2. `debconf' A.1.3. `fakeroot' fakeroot is a core tool for Debian developers.

Done The following NEW packages will be installed: picwiz 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded. Need to get 0B/34.5kB of archives.

So I investigated a little in man pages of apt-key and apt-secure, but I couldn't find a working solution*. Any help will be appreciated. Bye. - * In fact I tried the following: 1) I created a gpg key for root: # gpg --gen-key 2) I signed with it the release file in local repository of apt-build: # cd /var/cache/apt-build/repository # gpg -abs -o Release.gpg Release 3) I have add teh key to the accepted ones: # gpg --armor --export rootkeyid | apt-key add - but this seems not to work since, according to what written in apt-secure man page, you need to update the signature every time a new package is uploaded to the repository, and this cannot be done automatically by apt-build after the compilation and before installing the package.

In my experience, fakeroot is broken and rarely works at all, so I rely on sudo and I'm happy with it. I don't run hardened webservers though, and the packages are built on the same machine I will install them on. cheers Giacomo On 12/09/05, David Martínez Moreno <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > El lunes, 12 de septiembre de 2005 00:26, Giacomo Lacava escribió: > [...] > > from scratch thanks to the magical dpkg-* tools: > > > > apt-get source kompose-some-version > > cd kompose-some-version > > dpkg-buildpackage -rsudo -D && cd .. > > dpkg -i kompose-some-version.deb > >You should not use sudo.

Re: Kurios About Kaffine, Koffice, & Kompose
I went down the apt-build path, it worked well for me. That is a nice little tool to use! I knew you could rebuild DEBs, but I'm a RPM refugee... I was quite used to rpm --rebuild, but atp-build's 'just fetch the damn devel packages' was nice. Sweet! I'll just wait for the new koffice packages, who knows maybe I'll finally get a chance to play with krita... Thanks!
Re: Kurios About Kaffine, Koffice, & Kompose
Hello, I've had working packages of KOffice 1.4.1 backported from Ubuntu, with appropriate dependency changes and the like, since last week. I contact Mr. Burton about using them, but he has some major plans for improving the packaging IIRC.

Kurios About Kaffine, Koffice, & Kompose
Hi, first I'd like to congratulate all of the kde packagers who did such a good job of getting KDE 3.4.2, k3b, KDE Web Dev, the GTK-QT theme engine thingy, and Amarok packaged after the ABI transition (and many others)... Everything is working great. I suspect everybody on this list is sick of "when" type mails, but does anybody have any info on when a person can expect to see the following (all pretty and packaged) on a debian mirror: -Kaffine -Koffice -Kompose I'm looking forward to completing my "KDE Stack", any info from those in "the know" would be appreciated... Heh, if I go and rebuild the packages I'm sure the packager(s) will release their newer versions the hour after :) Thanks for any info! _James
