I'm running into problems building the sddm package. When I download the source package, switch into the package dir, and run debuild, then it works fine. But if I make a two-line change to a single .cpp file via quilt edit and then build again, I get a lot of error messages like:
dpkg-source: error: cannot represent change to data/themes/debian-elarun/images/user_icon.png: binary file contents changed dpkg-source: error: add data/themes/debian-elarun/images/user_icon.png in debian/source/include-binaries if you want to store the modified binary in the debian tarball This seems completely un-related to the change I made (see below). It seems the file debian/source/include-binaries is not present, and even if I create and populate it as suggested by the error messages, I then run into new binary difference errors. Am I doing something wrong, or is this source package not in a buildable state? The steps I followed were: sudo su apt-get install --no-install-recommends devscripts fakeroot mkdir /usr/local/src/sddm cd /usr/local/src/sddm apt-get build-dep sddm apt-get source sddm cd sddm-0.19.0/ export EDITOR="vim" echo "QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches" > ~/.quiltrc quilt new remove-Xsession-timeout quilt edit src/daemon/XorgDisplayServer.cpp quilt refresh dch -i debuild -us -uc Many thanks, John
