pretty much. dpkg-buildpackage will create a debian package the way that the official debian package works, but linked against your libraries. this is sometimes necessary if you have conflicts like you said. on top, the debian approach is preferable as it integrates with apt/dpkg/dselect and thus fullfills dependencies and other stuff... -- martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; [EMAIL PROTECTED] humpty was pushed.
