Ok. I'll do that. Now, who decides where the packages are going: main or
non-free. It looks like this is not clear yet.

Hi,
Here is a bit more complicated problem:
- vdk has 2 reference files: vdk041.ps and vdkref04_05.ps
- they are distributed on the vdk site as .ps.gz files.
The first one is for the obsolete vdk 0.4 and the seccond contain the
changes made in the vdk 0.5.
There is no tar.gz. I have decided to
Hi,
VDK library which I'm packaging has 2 documentation files distributed
separately as ps.gz. How am I supposed to package those files ? There's
no tar.gz, just 2 compressed postscript files.
TIA,
Ionutz
PS: I want to make somehow a vdk-doc package from them.

Hi,
This is the latest release of the vdk. I hope to be informed as soon as
possible as being a debian developer and upload it to Incoming.
Please test it and tell me if something's wrong as this is my first
attempt to package a library (and seccond to package anything).

Hi,

You've got a point here, I agree :-).
Hi,
If you have time for this, please install and test my first package
which contains libraries. They can be downloaded from:
http://borco-ei.eng.hokudai.ac.jp/~borco/vdk/download/vdk/stable/
VDK is a C++ wrapper for GTK. It borrows a lot from Borland C++
Builder's philosophy. Installin

Hi,
I am trying to package my first set of libs. I am doing this from my
account with fakeroot. The problem is that this way, the process stops
with the following error:

Hi,
I want to package the VDK libs. But I have to take a decission: how to
make the dbg package.
The VDK, if compiled with "-g -DVDKDEBUG" can provide additional
information, like the activity of the garbage collector (gc), regardless
of statically or dynamically linkage. Also, dynamically linkin

Hi,
How do I set the DESTDIR in my Makefile ? If a non-debian user will
download the package, he/she will want to install my program in
/usr/local. If he/she is a debian user, the deb package should be
created from the tar.gz and files moved to completely different places,
like /etc, /usr/X11R6 ..

Hi,
To train myself, I am packing one of my own programs. I have understood
that, in the case debian_source == original_source, you can add to your
source directory tree a directory called debian and keep specific files
there.
I have 2 questions about this:
1. I am using a simple makefile, as I h
