Ah! Thank you! "binNMU" is the magic word. Found the following in google: https://wiki.debian.org/binNMU http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man1/sbuild.1.html So I would have to install/learn "sbuild". > In your case it would be worthwhile documenting the fact your package diffe > from the archive anyway; so I'd recommend just adding a new changelog stanz I was wrong, it turns out that binNMUs _do_ (usually) add a changelog entry, but it's a sort of ephemeral entry (e.g. the changelog entry for 2.12-1+b2 won't show in the changelog for 2.12-2 because it doesn't go into the source package) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
