Yeap this is intended way. dpkg-source -x applies patches and leaves you with a patched tree. That's the mail reason for the new format. Unfortunately git-buildpackage has not yet been updated to handle this in a better way. Cause we still should have debain/patches/*.patch And I have no clue how to handle this =) > > (not a blocker for sponsoring this package, but still something we > should agree on, as I do not want different packages in this team to > behave differently in this aspect.) > Well I can add dh --with quilt back. and switch back to format 1.0. This format is not default yet and only ~300 packages have been converted to it. And there are about ~70 bugs with regards to quilt format 3.0 by default. Plus launchpad/soyuz doesn't support it either yet. Thank you for looking at sponsoring. -- With best regards Dmitrijs Ledkovs (for short Dima), Ледков Дмитрий Юрьевич () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments _______________________________________________ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
