I cannot reproduce this, it works fine for me, also given the code in this program I don't see how any of those two can happen. If you are using dpkg-dev 1.13.25 the md5sum should be: c0ddbd62850df03b3b25ddbff7baaa9f dpkg-buildpackage otherwise you or someone else has modified that file. It just came to my mind that you might have dpkg-cross installed, which diverts that file. :-/ regards, guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
