Re: help - deb-make/build



Duh.  Okay.  I missed that step after getting confused from the whole thing
not compiling alone.  A thousand pardons for the static.  

I added the lines to dirs, and it finishes now, but this brings up the
final question:
Are the manual pages changed to executable normally?  How do I avoid this?

chown root  /data/dupload/heyu/heyu-1.19/debian/tmp/usr/bin/heyu
cp heyu.1 /data/dupload/heyu/heyu-1.19/debian/tmp/usr/man/man1
chmod 755 /data/dupload/heyu/heyu-1.19/debian/tmp/usr/man/man1/heyu.1
cp x10config.5 /data/dupload/heyu/heyu-1.19/debian/tmp/usr/man/man5
chmod 755 /data/dupload/heyu/heyu-1.19/debian/tmp/usr/man/man5/x10config.5
make[1]: Leaving directory `/data/dupload/heyu/heyu-1.19'
