Modifying existing packages
Hi, all,
I'm new to this end - and don't know if what I want is possible or not.
But here goes.
I need to modify some of the stock Debian packages for different
options. For instance, I need to modify
Exim to include MySQL support. I have several other packages with
similar needs.
What I need is a pointer to instructions on how I can get the the
information for how these packages
were built so I can modify them to meet my needs. I'd like to change
them as little as necessary to
maintain compatibility with other packages.
I've looked through a lot of documentation and haven't figured out how
to get the original build
information. But with all the available info out there, I probably
missed it, also. So if someone can
at least provide a pointer to doc on where I should start, I'd
appreciate it.
TIA.
