take (another) look at that new article on apt-build: http://julien.danjou.info/article-apt-build.html it contains an awk script to make your apt-build.list file: dpkg --get-selections | awk '{if ($2 == "install") print $1}' > /etc/apt/apt-build.list It also mentions you should read README.Debian first, and remove certain packages from the list (gcc, libc6). apparently apt-build.list should contain a list of all packages you want apt-build world to build. I'd try it with a small world for a start (e.g. sl, cowsay) before trusting it to rebuild my whole system. good luck with your search for knowledge! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
