Don't know if this is a good way of checking packages. It's a great way! I still believe the fixes I suggested need to be applied if they haven't been yet. > currently i don't use svn-buildpackage, wasn't aware of its existence > when starting to make the first package for ubuntu :) Since we are > planing to move to git in the next weeks/month I have not tried it with > this. That's great! In this case I encourage you to take a look at git-buildpackage. :) A. PS: regarding native vs non-native package, what I often do is that I maintain a different repository for the debian meta-data. For example, even though I am a maintainer in the Drush project, I chose to split out the debian directory in a separate git repository because: a) it allows non-drush people to maintain the package b) it makes it possible to maintain different *branches* for the package (say stable and dev) and merge packaging changes between them *without* merging stable in the upstream source code c) it makes it easier for Ubuntu or other non-Debian people to make changes to the package See the drush package here: http://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/drush.git It also uses git-buildpackage. -- Si Dieu existe, j'espère qu'Il a une excuse valable - Daniel Pennac
