As others have doubtless said by now, you need to use the dpkg package from hamm to unpack it. Debian is switching to pristine sources for the next major release -- the original tarball from the author no longer has to be repacked as "sendmail-8.8.7.orig" just to suit the whims of older dpkgs. Instead only the filename was changed. This means, not coincidentially, that the source code on the Debian site now matches the PGP signature published by the author. --------------------- PGP E4 70 6E 59 80 6A F5 78 63 32 BC FB 7A 08 53 4C __ _ Debian GNU Johnie Ingram <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> mm mm / /(_)_ __ _ ___ __ "netgod" irc.debian.org mm mm / / | | '_ \| | | \ \/ / m m m / /__| | | | | |_| |> < Those who do not understand UNIX mm mm \____/_|_| |_|\__,_/_/\_\ are doomed to repeat it, poorly.
