/debian/ directory in deluge svn?

Post by HoverHell »

What's current purpose of current /debian/ in deluge svn, considering that its changelog has version '0.6.0-svn3235-1' and it all seems quite outdated?
I guess it should be either deleted or updated.

… I guess it's in wrong forum after all :)
This post most likely should be moved to Development forum. Can anyone do that?

* messing user tasks with development, eh… :?

What about updating it to working debian build directory?
* I have somewhat successfully replaced it with one from source package in debian repository (doing ‘version upgrade’), although it lacks couple dependencies and might break over time.

I guess problem with it is that you're trying to build few versions of packages though… Yet I sort of doubt it will be very problematic.

Although, how exactly do you build debian package?…

Ah. Sorry, didn't notice.

Then it's better to remove it after all.

Yea, probably.. I've left it in for now for those who want to build their own packages.. We don't include it in our source tarballs, so it isn't much of an issue..
