I've got a few debian machines here that I'd like to update with a custom w3m .deb package. Ideally, what I'd like to do is download the source .deb for w3m, extract it, apply debian specific patches from the package maintainer, apply my own custom patches to the C source, repackage it up as a w3m.deb, and install it in my machines. That way I'd still have it registered in the package management system.
Thus far, I've gotten to: 1. apt-get source w3m But that's about it. apt-get gave me this listing: w3m-0.2.4/ w3m_0.2.4-1.diff.gz w3m_0.2.4-1.dsc w3m_0.2.4.orig.tar.gz But then, I don't see the extracted source under w3m-0.2.4/, just debian/ and upstream/, neither of which has a debian-prepatched source which I can modify before repackaging up. I'm sure this is a common enough occurance that someone would have figured out an elegant way to do it. No? I could always just download the w3m sources from it's homepage and build it and install it by hand, but then it wouldn't get registered in the debian package management system. Thanks in advance.
