You might get better success rates if you write in your mails what it is about (unless it is so ugly you think noone would otherwise download it to take a look at it). > you can find the latest files here: http://tirolinux.net/~daniel/vexim/ > * http://tirolinux.net/~daniel/vexim/vexim_2.2.1-5.1.dsc > * http://tirolinux.net/~daniel/vexim/vexim_2.2.1-5.1.tar.gz > * http://tirolinux.net/~daniel/vexim/vexim_2.2.1-5.1_i386.changes The file vexim-2.2.1.orig.tar.gz should have had the name vexim_2.2.1.orig.tar.gz, then you would have got a .diff.gz instead of a .tar.gz (and that is not even downloadable permission problems) > any hints and tips are really welcome, also suggestions for further > improvement and features. Looking at the CVS as not otherwise getable: Your debian/rules looks improveable a lot. Why all this -stamp files if you do nothing at all (Especially the install-stamp file is totally useless twice, as it depends on a phony target and is not on a place where resuming is extremly usefull)? And why only patch if all is build but not if only the arch-independent stuff is to be build? (also patch should never be in build* prerequisites, but always as -stamp in the -stamp prerequisites). Additionally it would be nice to have an build-arch: target, so you have both of them. (And if by some chance a future buildd supporting those get this package to build arch-only nows faster that it has nothing to do). You seem not to use $(buildname) and $(DEBIAN) so why set them? And $(shell pwd) is unneeded, make has $(CURDIR). Hochachtungsvoll, Bernhard R. Link -- "Never contain programs so few bugs, as when no debugging tools are available!"
