dpkg-gencontrol is only called quite late in the binary package build process, and not at all for source-only uploads. Its job is to create DEBIAN/control in each binary package, which becomes part of control.tar.gz in the .deb when dpkg-deb --build is run. It does not create .dsc files; that's dpkg-source's job. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
