Change the "deb" to "deb-src" above, and you should get the source archive as well, now. Debarchiver is really keen, once you get it set up right. :) A slight snag in the ongoing builds - jade, sgml-data, and sgml-base have a looping dependancy that prevents building them from scratch, so I have filed a bug (since this isn't BSD-specific) and will have to wait for the results. On a sidenote... I'm a bit worried at the errors I'm seeing out of the shared-lib dependancy autogenerator stuff. Is this still broken? (I don't mind re-building all of the packages, once it's fixed, if so, but I would sort of like to know...) -- *************************************************************************** Joel Baker System Administrator - lightbearer.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://users.lightbearer.com/lucifer/
