Uploaded and thanks for your work. One minor thing I'm not too concerned about is that diff.gz directly patches the Makefile [1]. In fact the change is so innocent that using a patch system could be considered an overkill, but anyway you could: a) push that change upsteam; or b) do not try to correct the Makefile, but issue the needed commands directly from debian/rules (not very smart idea, since you would lose make's timestamp facility); or c) use topgit as your patch queue manager, see: /usr/share/doc/topgit/HOWTO-tg2quilt.gz; or d) do nothing, and leave it like that as long as the modification remains as a single logic change and fits in a couple of rows. By no means this is intended to bring you any headaches, so apply as you see fit, nothing urgent here. [1] as could be seen at http://patch-tracking.debian.net/package/replaceit /* that is an extremely great resource ! */ or just lsdiff -zx '*/debian/*' diff.gz. -- pub 4096R/0E4BD0AB 2003-03-18 <people.fccf.net/danchev/key pgp.mit.edu> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
