Yes I do know where to find dpkg-genchanges, but it would be more convenient if there was an option for make-kpkg to automatically call it when it's done building the deb's. > Also, dpkg-scanpackages can generate a scan-able apt-able tree > without the need for a changes file. But other tools don't, for example debpool, they need the information from the .changes to correctly insert the deb's into the pool-structure. Andreas -- You will have long and healthy life.
