Run it with both -X and explicit file name? :) -- WBR, wRAR signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Packing and installing Debian changelog "by hand"
Hi I have a package which got a menu item to show the upstream changelog - So I want to avoid compressing this, but still compress the Debian changelog. In my attempts I first use override_dh_compress and add -Xchangelog there, with the results that all changelogs are not compressed. (Since this also catches changelog.Debian) Fine, then I simply compress my Debian changelog by hand using gzip -9 - which I have tried in override_dh_install_changelogs like this: override_dh_installchangelogs: dh_installchangelogs -k ChangeLog gzip -9 $(CURDIR)/debian/geeqie/usr/share/doc/geeqie/changelog.Debian gzip -9 $(CURDIR)/debian/geeqie-common/usr/share/doc/geeqie-common/changelog.Debian which works fine locally, but fails horribly on the buildds: >make[1]: Entering directory '/<>' >dh_installchangelogs -k ChangeLog >gzip -9 /<>/debian/geeqie/usr/share/doc/geeqie/changelog.Debian >gzip -9 >/<>/debian/geeqie-common/usr/share/doc/geeqie-common/changelog.Debian >gzip: >/<>/debian/geeqie-common/usr/share/doc/geeqie-common/changelog.Debian: > No such file or directory >make[1]: *** [debian/rules:41: override_dh_installchangelogs] Error 1 >make[1]: Leaving directory '/<>' >make: *** [debian/rules:4: binary-arch] Error 2 >dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary-arch subprocess returned >exit status 2 Instead doing it like this: override_dh_installchangelogs: dh_installchangelogs -pgeeqie -k ChangeLog gzip -9 $(CURDIR)/debian/geeqie/usr/share/doc/geeqie/changelog.Debian dh_installchangelogs -pgeeqie-common -k ChangeLog gzip -9 $(CURDIR)/debian/geeqie-common/usr/share/doc/geeqie-common/changelog.Debian should work also on the buildds, right? Or how should it be done properly? Simply asking to avoid using the buildds for testing (again). thanks in advance -- Andreas Rönnquist gus...@debian.org mailingli...@gusnan.se
