I was tempted to leave it completely blank, to avoid complications in the postinst code, but I will reevaluate this. > On the other hand, pbuilder will source /usr/share/pbuilder/pbuilderrc > before /etc/pbuilderrc, so you can actually leave /etc/pbuilderrc > mostly blank, and just fill in, say, MIRRORSITE only. Excellent! I will change the postinst to do a minimal pbuilderrc, by default or transform the existing one's MIRRORSITE filed, without loosing any other information. Note: I also sent an updated patch, which, it seems, got lost somewhere along the way. It was dropping needless usage of temp files. Those changes are visible in my git pbuilder repo[0]. Is it ok if I publish my changes in my git repo[0][1] on alioth and ask you to pull from there, instead of sending in the BR a patch? Or do you prefer I send a patch? (I don't plan to develop on pbuilder in the near future, but I prefer git publishing to BTS publishing). [0] http://git.debian.org/?p=users/eddyp-guest/pbuilder.git;a=summary [1] Since the publication of the repo on alioth, I was careful to not make unneeded commits public and I amended unpublished changes in order to avoid a long and useless history. -- Regards, EddyP ============================================= "Imagination is more important than knowledge" A.Einstein -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
