I'm probably being thick, but I don't see how to do this -- if I re- created the .orig.tar.gz file with lowercase names instead, then I wouldn't be using the pristine source, would I? Is there some incantation to dpkg-buildpackage to tell it what the name of the original source directory is (i.e. not `mlib-1.6.1.orig' but `mLib-1.6.1.orig')? -- Chris <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ( http://www.fluff.org/chris )
