Hello,
I also had the problem of dpkg-deb: parse error, in file `debian/tmp/DEBIAN/control' near line 6 package `bloksi': `Depends' field, missing package name, or garbage where package name expected dh_builddeb: command returned error code make: *** [binary-indep] Error 1 It seemed to disappear when I put the "Depends" line in the first paragraph. I kept one copy of the Depends line in the 2nd paragraph; otherwise no Depends line appears in debian/tmp/DEBIAN/control. This is not likely to be the right way of doing things. Etienne The debian/control file : Source: bloksi Section: games Priority: optional Maintainer: Etienne Grossmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Standards-Version: 3.0.1 Depends: perl, libgtk-perl, libgnome-perl, libgtk-imlib-perl Package: bloksi Depends: perl, libgtk-perl, libgnome-perl, libgtk-imlib-perl Architecture: all Description: Sliding-blocks puzzle (glotski written in perl) Bloksi is a game of sliding-blocks puzzles in which blocks should be pushed around to a "goal" position. Nearly a clone -written in perl- of "glotski", whose files can be read.
