Hi, wanting to upgrade to a newer version of Liferea than what's in Testing.
So, I downloaded the upstream source, downloaded the most recent version of the Debian Package, so that I have a Debian source tree. Next I copied the Debian source tree directory from the existing Debian source package into the upstream source, with Debian dsc and OrigSrc one level up. Then I ran 'dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -j4' as root' which gave me the following error; dpkg-buildpackage: info: source package liferea dpkg-buildpackage: info: source version 1.10.19-2 dpkg-buildpackage: info: source distribution unstable dpkg-buildpackage: info: source changed by David Michael Smith <sidic...@gmail.com> dpkg-buildpackage: info: host architecture amd64 dpkg-source --before-build liferea-1.12-rc1a dpkg-source: info: using options from liferea-1.12-rc1a/debian/source/options: --compression=xz dpkg-source: info: applying debian-example-feeds.patch dpkg-source: info: applying www-browser.patch patching file src/browser.c Hunk #1 FAILED at 72. 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED patching file net.sf.liferea.gschema.xml.in dpkg-source: info: the patch has fuzz which is not allowed, or is malformed dpkg-source: info: if patch 'www-browser.patch' is correctly applied by quilt, use 'quilt refresh' to update it dpkg-source: info: restoring quilt backup files for www-browser.patch dpkg-source: error: LC_ALL=C patch -t -F 0 -N -p1 -u -V never -E -b -B .pc/www-browser.patch/ --reject-file=- < liferea-1.12-rc1a/debian/patches/www-browser.patch gave error exit status 1 dpkg-buildpackage: error: dpkg-source --before-build liferea-1.12-rc1a gave error exit status 2 ======================================================================== I'm new to building Debian packages, so any suggestions appreciated, I'm running Debian 'Testing'.
