How do I use the source package disributions?



	Sounds liek a stupid question I know. First the reason. I am trying to
	get amanda to work on my debian box. I am still on bo and there is no
	.deb binary, so I think simple i'll just grab the hamm source stuff.

	I found the .orig file and a .diff file. I thought I could just untar
	the .orig, and then pun pathch < from the .diff file. But this results
	in lot's of files in the directory I am working dorm, and not in the
	appropriate subdirectories.

	What am I doing wrong?
