I'm not sure I see how it makes any difference. Either way, I would start with their package and add Debian packaging files for Debian. The only difference is some minor variation in what commands I run at the very start of that process (namely, git-import-dsc for a non-native package vs. git-import-orig for a native package). I have a hard time seeing how this choice would make more than thirty seconds of difference to my workflow. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
