Actually, dpkg-buildpackage does not care what you name the build directory of a package. Persaonally, I use just packagename for the directory names and build directly from them, using a collection of ugly hacks to ignore the .svn directories[1]. I don't really recommend that, but it works. -- see shy jo [1] DH_ALWAYS_EXCLUDE=CVS:.svn dpkg-buildpackage -i'(?:^|/).*~$|(?:^|/)\..*\.swp|DEADJOE|(?:/CVS|/.svn|/RCS|/.deps)(?:$|/.*$)' -ICVS -I.svn
