So there is ./Makefile (which contains the dist target), which then calls ./debian/rules, which then modifies ./ - this seems ugly to me too. In debian-edu-doc one has to call "./debian/rules get-orig-sources" directly (and this only modifies the upstream source in the package, but not the packaging.) I also share Jonas opinion that native packages should be avoided and consider them legacy. regards, Holger
