Hello, I have almost managed to package my first library. :) But one problem remains: "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot" always builds a native package. I would like to build a non-native one, but I don't know how. What I do currently is take the upstream archive ("libnonsense-0.1.0.tar.bz2"), extract it, pur the debian/ directory inside the extracted directory, and run dpkg-buildpackage in the latter. I end up with: libnonsense0_0.1.0-1_i386.deb libnonsense_0.1.0-1.dsc <- some kind of description file, but who uses it? libnonsense_0.1.0-1_i386.changes <- what is that? libnonsense_0.1.0-1.tar.gz <- why is this created at all and is it different from "libnonsense-0.1.0.tar.bz2" other than by name and compression format? libnonsense-0.1.0.tar.bz2 libnonsense-dev_0.1.0-1_i386.deb Thank you for your help! Best, Georgi
