Usage: dpkg-buildpackage [<options> ...]
Options:
-r<gain-root-command>
command to gain root privileges (default is fakeroot).
....
....
-T<target> call debian/rules <target> with the proper environment
rrright - am i correct in thinking that if you do "dpkg-buildpackage
-rfakeroot -Tfoo" it does _nothing_ but run that particular task in
the debian/rules makefile? assuming that the task's dependencies (in
the debian/rules aka makefile) have all been satisfied up to that
point, that is.
if so, it would almost be a trivial job to back-end the bitbake
"tasks" concept into the dpkg-buildpackage "target" conecept,
one-for-one compile, configure, install, package, sign. in between
you'd perform special cross-compile "tweaks" which are well-known
already in the openembedded environment and are prooobably similar to
what dpkg-cross does.... *scratches head*...
is this easy to undeststand? i'm a little confused at the lack of
response and discussion: if i haven't made this clear enough i
apologise - please do tell me what i need to say so that this can be
discussed.
tia,
