Re: How to handle software which needs huge modification when packaging for Debian

uff from upstream, then you do it in original file, like: "virtualbox-ose_3.2.10-dfsg.orig.tar.gz" But if you add or modify stuff, you do it via patch, like: "virtualbox-ose_3.2.10-dfsg-1.diff.gz" I hope this example was helpful. Best wishes, -- -Alexey Eromenko "Technologov"

d64. Both basic functionality works, and lintian clean. I believe it is wrong to release Debian 7.0 with an ancient version of GNS3. Can you help ? Thanks in advance, -- -Alexey Eromenko "Technologov" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject
