editing former patches
Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour, Let's consider the package slim, from here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/slim/1.3.1-4/+files/ When I get it with apt-get source the untared folder is already patched. I dont like the way it's patched because it defaults to the Debian theme. And also, most of the patch is the Debian theme (debian-moreblue-orbit). I would like to build a separate package for themes and keep the other patches, which are, I think, necessary: - adding the debian/ directory - patching the original code for various reasons How to? Would you please help me? Misaotra, Thanks, Merci. -- Architecte Informatique chez Blueline/Gulfsat: Administration Systeme, Recherche Developpement +261 3456 000 19 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

From what I can tell (but I did not dig too deep) the theme is put in to the debian/ part, not sure if the build part includes it from there or not (I never looked up the debian/rules).

No I have looked into the package. The themes can be found in the debian directory as: - debian-moreblue.shar - debian-moreblue-orbit.shar Both files are bash-files and they will be executed by debian/rules. Only the theme text04 theme is inside the original source (slim_1.3.1.orig.tar.gz) Fondest regards, Joachim Wiedorn signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Now, how to split the diff.gz in order to select the only patches I want?

For this work I recommend to make the usual unpack: dpkg-source -x --skip-patches foo.dsc (for format 3.0) or dpkg-source -x foo.dsc (for format 1.0) and then use the both theme files inside debian directory: - debian/debian-moreblue.shar - debian/debian-moreblue-orbit.shar Start these script files as shown in debian/rules: sh debian/debian-moreblue.shar sh debian/debian-moreblue-orbit.shar The result should be: - debian/debian-moreblue/ - debian/debian-moreblue-orbit/ Then you need to change a line in slim.conf (see one patch file): # current theme, use comma separated list to specify a set to # randomly choose from -current_theme default +current_theme debian-moreblue-orbit Fondest regards, Joachim Wiedorn signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Joachim, I just want to do the opposite: - remove patches related to the debian-more-blue - keep all remaining patches -- Architecte Informatique chez Blueline/Gulfsat: Administration Systeme, Recherche Developpement +261 3456 000 19 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Have a look at filterdiff, lsdiff and friends. And, for the love of
$DEITY, split the patches in sets that make things like this easier, if
they are not split yet.
And contribute back what you've done.
