Hi everyone,
maybe its just me, but I cannot get the hang of that 3.0 (quilt)
and pre/post applying patches.
Recently I prepared a NMU for less to finally fix the missing xz(tar.xz)
support, added a new patch, but it is *impossible* for me to build
a package. Irrelevant wether the patches were applied beforehand
or not, dpkg-buildpackage always ends up in trying to apply them TWO
times, which of course does not work.
Here a terminal log:
$ dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot

Well. And if I do pre-apply the patches qith quilt push -a then the same
error happens.
So what is it that dpkg-buildpackage, dpkg-source, and all the quilt 3.0
stuff is soooo braindamaged????
I expect a package to build when I call dpkg-buildpackage, and if the
source format is so super-intelligent to breeak that, than there is
an error in the design.
So, let the flame war start again, or the enlightning procedure. I am open
to explanations.
Best wishes
Norbert
