Hello again,

thanks to all who replied to my previous mail. Using your advice Isolved/correct all the problems/bugs, but still there is one thing Idon't understand:

* I store all the scripts in a tarball,

If you are using the .orig.tar.gz directly, you have misunderstood the
structure of a Debian source package: The .orig.tar.gz is unpacked,
the tree is patched with the .diff.gz and then one builds / installs
entirely from there.

You may actually want to do a "Debian native" package that has only a
.tar.gz and no .diff.gz.

Yes, this is exactly the problem - the *.orig.tar.gz should be unpacked,but apparently it is not. When I have in my makefile:

.....
install:
         cp -a usr $(DESTDIR)/usr
.....
it fails with the error message:
--------------
# Add here commands to install the package into debian/ucjf-security.

/usr/bin/make installDESTDIR=/home/davidek/debian/ucjf-security-1.0.2/debian/ucjf-security

Someone of you mentioned that it should be debian/rules script thatunpacks the .orig.tar.gz. I tried to issue the commands one-by-one, butnone of them unpacked the orig tarball. BTW, should it be unpacked into/home/davidek/debian/ucjf-security-1.0.2 (see above) or somewhere else ?

I probably miss something in the debian/rules (attached), the fulloutput of dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot is also attached.


Thanks a lot for help,

best regards

          Tomas
