Hello,
I downloaded the apache 1.3.12 sources and wanted to make a deb from it
but dpkg-deb -b apache-1.3.12 says:
dpkg-deb: failed to open package info file `apache-1.3.12/DEBIAN/control'
for reading: No such file or directory
I rename apache-1.3.12/debian to DEBIAN and then the same command again:
dpkg-deb: parse error, in file `apache-1.3.12/DEBIAN/control' near line 7:
missing package name
ok, there was a spare new line on the 7th line. I deleted it.
then I did a dpkg-deb -b apache-1.3.12 again:
dpkg-deb: parse error, in file `apache-1.3.12/DEBIAN/control' near line 9
package `apache':
`Depends' field, invalid package name `${shlibs:Depends}': must start
with an alphanumeric
that's all. what shall I do now?
can my dpkg-deb be too new? (1.6.15 (i386))
I'd like to make an apache with frontpage extension but first I wanted to
make a deb file from the original source...
thanx in advance
ps.: does someone know of an apache+frontpage.deb? then I needn't to
bother with dpkg-deb.
