Hmm. As a less automagic alternative, perhaps I could just arrange it so that we just detect when the debian/autofiles.dpatch is out of date and then print a suitable error message, rather than trying to update it, i.e. $ fakeroot debian/rules binary ... ERROR: debian/patches/autofiles.dpatch out of date with respect to other patches. Please update it via "debian/rules update-autofiles-dpatch" and try again. $ The test would be handled via md5sum as previously described. -- Rob Browning rlb @defaultvalue.org and @debian.org; previously @cs.utexas.edu GPG starting 2002-11-03 = 14DD 432F AE39 534D B592 F9A0 25C8 D377 8C7E 73A4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
