Ah okay. I don’t use all these tools (not even cvs-buildpackage when I carried my packages, including CVS itself for which I am maintainer ☻, in CVS), just the standard Debian tools like dpkg-buildpackage, cowbuilder and straight git. The magic may be useful, but this way helps me to better understand what’s going on ;-) Anyway, now, both ways are documented, and I’m informed that they’re equivalent, so readers of the list archives may choose. bye, //mirabilos -- tarent solutions GmbH Rochusstraße 2-4, D-53123 Bonn • http://www.tarent.de/ Tel: +49 228 54881-393 • Fax: +49 228 54881-235 HRB 5168 (AG Bonn) • USt-ID (VAT): DE122264941 Geschäftsführer: Dr. Stefan Barth, Kai Ebenrett, Boris Esser, Alexander Steeg
