dpkg-source
Having a desire to look at the ppp_2.3.1 sources, I went to unstable on
ftp.debian.org and got what I guessed were the appropriate files:
ppp_2.3.1-3.diff.gz, ppp_2.3.1-3.dsc, and ppp_2.3.1.orig.tar.gz. I stuck
these in a directory, and, after perusing the dpkg-source man page, issued
the command:
dpkg-source -x ppp_2.3.1-3.dsc
and got this result:
dpkg-source: error: tarfile `./ppp_2.3.1.orig.tar.gz' contains object
(ppp-2.3.1/) not in expected directory (ppp-2.3.1.orig)
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? I can make no sense of this
message.
