No need to CC me, thanks :) Even if I'm not (anymore) active in the team, I follow the mailinglist, hoping I can find something I would be useful to.

It should work, but it's not as foolproof as one would expect. Please, learn to use the SVN property "mergeWithUpstream". In short: cd trunk/ svn propset mergeWithUpstream 1 debian svn ci -m "Merge the svn source with upstream" (I might have missed the correct order for "svn propset" -- I'm using git now for most of my things) > pdebuild --auto-debsign --debsign-k 0EA23F2B After you set mergeWithUpstream, you should do: $ svn-do This will export your svn debian/ and the original tarball (which usually is in ../tarballs/) into ../build-area/gdcm-somethingrandom/. There you can work, and do patches and whatever. As soon as you do "exit", any new/changed file in gdcm-random/debian/ would be copied over your SVN debian/. This is to work on the packaging. To just build for upload, svn-buildpackage is your friend (from the trunk/ directory). I suggest you to have a look at our policy, in particular: http://debian-med.alioth.debian.org/docs/policy.html#id304574 (At other people: since I've been using git for a while, I might have some tips to ease development with it. Please tell me if you're interested in a policy paragraph for it :)) > dupload /var/cache/pbuilder/result/*gdcm* I'd suggest you to only upload *.changes files. *gdcm*ch* could be ok :) Kindly, David -- .
