That's right. After i removed the "unpatch" dep for the clean target I get: "debian/rules clean make: *** No rule to make target `dh_testdir', needed by `clean'. Stop." Ok, I've also removed "dh_testdir" and get: "debian/rules clean make: *** No rule to make target `dh_testroot', needed by `clean'. Stop." and so on :( So something is wrong and i currently don't know what. >>> debian/README.source is not necessary for packages using a standard >>> format like 3.0 (quilt).

But it's telling me "hey there is a missing-build-dependeny quilt". I only get this error if I comment out the following line in debian/control include /usr/share/quilt/quilt.make >>> A note at the beginning of patches indicating the reason and author for >>> the change would be nice. >> Hm, how do i add comments with quilt to existing patches.

Thanks. I'll consider this after the mentioned things. Regards and thank you, Werner -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
