As I reviewd the 3.0[*] results, I noticed that the sources did not have any of our own manual changes. Therefore the automatic patch generation was not relevant here. The diff was mostly product of ./configure and the build process:Makefile.in => Makefile etc.If you have carefully reviewed the package, verified that allYes. The *-1.2 is a cosmetic cleanup to *-1.1 so everything is included as they were. The *-1.2 in a nutshell: - Correct changelog - Get rid of auto generated 3.0 debian/patches Thanks, Jari [*] The 3.0 is in practise like this: Compare original sources to the one in debian. => If changes, the process writes a quilt(1) compatible patch in debian/patches/ The idea is that Debian specific changes, when they are not controlled by a patching system (dpatch, quilt), are made visible. These changes can then be made known to upstream; or the upstream can see them from the Debian package WWW pages.
