dh_installkpatches can't do this - does it have to be untarred? Why can't you just make up a diff, and apply that with dh_installkpatches? :) d BTW, for kernel-patch-ulog, there was no straight-out diff, so I had to apply it via patch-o-matic, and diff it against a clean source tree. -- Daniel Stone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
