Package: grep Version: 2.15-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? I try to follow the sid packaging tutorial on Tanglu linux, which is based on Debian Testing. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I did : - apt-get source - debuild -uc -us - wait till it's done - another time debuild -uc -us * What was the outcome of this action?
