One way to do that is to use a local repository containing a modified package. That way, the data gets into the apt cache - it is not read from the package. > Doesn't apt-get build-dep read that file, or what is wrong with my > tests? apt uses the cache built from downloaded Packages/Sources files. Use dpkg-checkbuilddeps to work on the currently unpacked package then install the necessary build-deps manually. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
