To this end, I have been using ubuntu 7.04 as a developement environment. Is that wrong? If so, it could be a problem for me, because I have dialup and it would take a long time to download a distribution dvd. I had this ubuntu CD, (they seem to be everywhere), so I just started to use it. Everyone tells me that ubuntu is a form of debian.
Well, everyone who has told you is wrong. It's more a fork/heavily modified derivative than a variant. You can't build a package on Ubuntu and expect it to just work with Debian. If you can't download a full disc, then order a disc set from one of the many Linux retailers on the net.
Anyway, today I thought I had all my files OK, and I could build a package, so I thought to try to submit a "RFP". I did a "bugreport --email [EMAIL PROTECTED] wnpp" but it never asked me to "Choose the request type:" like it says in this web page: http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/ finnaly when it began saying it was going to send the report off to an ubuntu mailing list, I aborted it. Is there a way to file a RFP from ubuntu? What am I doing wrong?
That's because reportbug in Ubuntu is set to report everything to Ubuntu's bug tracker, not the Debian BTS. -- Andrew Donnellan ajdlinuxATgmailDOTcom (primary) ajdlinuxATexemailDOTcomDOTau (secure) http://andrewdonnellan.com http://ajdlinux.wordpress.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] hkp://subkeys.pgp.net 0x5D4C0C58 http://linux.org.au http://debian.org Get free rewards - http://ezyrewards.com/?id=23484 Spammers only === [EMAIL PROTECTED] === -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
