I don't understand what the problem is here, really. First of all, as Ming has pointed out, it's probably not pbuilder that runs clean, but pdebuild or whatever tool. Second, if you have the *need* to run debian/rules clean, this means you tried to configure the package on your working host, or something like that, and this means you should install the build-deps anyway. Alternatively, if you just unpacked the sources, edited some files in debian, and now want to create a binary package, why not simply cd ..; dpkg-source -b <package-dir> pbuilder build <new_dsc_file> Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f.
