The manpage recommends it this way, as when working in a VCS, the version number, and therefore the file name of the generated patch is meaningless if not wrong. Foring a stable filename ensures that changes go into a single patch. If we consider these autogenerated patches an error, this way we can extend debian/rules to check for existance of this file, and abort with an meaningful error message. >> Ok, I think we agree here.

Now that we allow both cdbs and debhelper, both format 1.0 and 3.0 patches, the page now becomes terribly convoluted. I fear we need more discussion to streamline what we actually want. I could imagine that we agree on a default workflow, which is applied to all packages but exceptions, and list the excepted packages there. -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 _______________________________________________ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
