the current Debian policy explicitly disallows shipping a Debian/ folder in the "upstream" tarball or distribution. When buidling with recent debian packaging tools, such a folder will be actively discareded, prior to adding the actual Debian-folder from the debianisation-diff. As a sidenote: I am maintaining several Debian packages (but not officially), for example a package for Lumiera. Personally, I found the git-buildpackage scripts most convenient and more in line with today’s tools and methods. https://honk.sigxcpu.org/piki/projects/git-buildpackage/ For this approach, you just maintain the debianisation in a Git branch, which forks off / merges from the current release point. Then, you may build the complete Debian package just from this Git tree with a single command. See for example http://git.lumiera.org/gitweb?p=lumiera/debian;a=summary Cheers, Hermann Vosseler _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list [email protected] https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
