I usually extract the new one (or apply a patch if that is the method), gunzip -dc old_version.diff.gz > somefile, then edit that 'somefile' and replace all instances of progdirectory-1.2.0 with progdirectory-1.2.1. Then apply that new diff with patch -p0 < somefile. And then clean up the .rej and .orig files and apply the missing stuff manually. BTW rename upstream_src.tgz to aspell_0.27.orig.tar.gz so that it gets recognized by dpkg-buildpackage automatically. > 3. dh_make and try to build? dh_make should IMHO be used only for new packagings. When you already have a good debian/* and others, why start again with default files? -- enJoy -*/\*- http://jagor.srce.hr/~jrodin/
