Hello, I am trying to build the thunderbird package with some modifications. I made the modifications and commited the changes to a local patch, but then during the build (using `debuild -uc -us`) I ran out of space. I ran `debuild clean` and then deleted different things on my computer and then tried to run the build again, but this time it no longer even starts. It immediately complains about files that were changed.
It prints out the files that are changed and provides a patch file `/tmp/icedove_45.8.0-3~deb8u1.diff.fG4ELW` and asks if I want to commit the changes with `dpkg-source --commit`. I don't, however, see any way to throw away these changes. How do I do this? If I used git, I would do something like `git stash; git stash drop`. Another approach would be to apply this patch file in reverse, but I'm not sure how to do that. How do I revert these changes? Is there no option for this in `dpkg-source`? I'm posting the entirety of the error printout below. Thanks for any help. Also on another note, would this be considered a bug in the debian packaging? It seems to me really odd that I wouldn't be able to run `debuild clean; debuild` and have it work again. Cheers, Thomas Here is the error printout: $ time debuild -uc -us dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -D -us -uc dpkg-buildpackage: source package icedove dpkg-buildpackage: source version 1:45.8.0-3~deb8u1
