I downloaded the source archoves (*.tar.bz2) from KDE3 official mirror, unpacked them and tried to dpkg-deb -b but obviously dpkg-deb expects a different format than the one that KDE3 got its archives in (for example DEBIAN directory and not debian like the archive got, and various control file differences)dpkg-deb --build is not the way to create a binary package from a source package. Additionally, The KDE 3.0 source tree does not include the required files for producing Debian binary packages. FYI, man dpkg-buildpackage should provide the information you seek.i am using the latest dpkg-deb (unstable debian) anyone got ideas ? suggestions ? already compiled deb's of kde 3 ?Sifting through the debian-kde archives, I found the following URL: http://kde3.geniussystems.net/debian I haven't tested it, but the packages are rumored to work.
