It isn't a possibility yet, it could be if the apt maintainers implemented it. I suggest: depending or build-depending on foo:source would make apt place source packages at /usr/src/debian/. Another one I would like is to be able to depend or build-dep on foo:build-depends or foo [Build-Depends] (or by extension foo:depends), which would mean we could get rid of the ugly hack that is mk-build-deps. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
