I used to do that and then exported it via single-debian-patch to 3.0 (quilt) format. I changed *to* debian/patches because I believe it's superior. It's somewhat harder to maintain, but it's vastly better for communicating to upstream or to other distributions. -- 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".
