Firstly, don't be in / when grabbing source packages. :) You don't need to be root, either. As an ordinary user, 'apt-get source centericq'. This creates a 'centericq-<version>' directory below the current directory. Change into that, then (after installing the fakeroot package) 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us'. -- Colin Watson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
