When I build from CVS, with the debian rules files, I always get problems on in debian/rules lines like: cp debian/kbm.init.d debian/kdm/etc/init.d/kdm The problem is that the destination directory often do not exists, and thus the cp fails. Do I need a special kind of cp to build with the debian/rules file, that creates missing directories, or what is the answer to this riddle? -- Karolina
