I'm not sure that means you should just ship the tarball. I just tried setting up the package normally, without the tarball, but at the moment It can't be installed on i386 as python-scipy depends on python-numpy, which depends on libgcc1 (>= 1:4.2-20070208), but that's not available. I would personally stick to _not_ shipping the tarball, and just stick with trying with a nice clean rule. I notice on their website they offer a Debian package themselves -- have you asked upstream about their package at all? Just one more thing: the tarball seems to have version 0.6.3.1 where your debian/changelog shows 0.6.3-1 -- don't you mean 0.6.3.1-1 ? > In fact, I realised I just let a bug slip through that caused gv to be > invoked incorrectly. I'll fix that in -2. Nice! I hope this helps! Regards, -- Jonny Lamb, UK [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://jonnylamb.com GPG: 0x2E039402
