re generate a rules file
Hello. I did not make a backup copy of my rules file, and I edited it like a pig. I would like to do it again but with a clean rules file. I would like to re-generate the rules file.

Have you generated a package yet? If so, you will find it inside the package-version.diff.gz file. If you don't have diff.gz file, it's because you made a native package, i.e. the debian/ directory is directly into the upstream tarball. Natives packages are special cases to me and the regular packager won't need it. A regular software package should have its Debian packages keep separated. To do so, use a tarball without the debian/ directory in it and name it with a .orig.tar.gz extension. I would like to re-generate the rules file. How to? Probably by using dh_make as you may have done the first time. If you are confident with source versioning, consider using one of the cvs-buildpackage, or svn-, or tla-. I use the latter and couldn't work without it now! -- Hervé Cauwelier http://www.oursours.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
