*-Ingo Hohmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | Hello! | | I've some source-packages (mostly .tar.gz) that I'd like | to install. Is it possible to do this in a way, that the | system later on knows about the binarys, like, if it's | been a debin binary package? (Things like automatic menus, | eventual update with dselect, and the like?)
Not easily. The most general way is to actually make a .deb of it. You can either become a maintainer or just use it locally. For menus see: /usr/doc/menu To circumvent dependencies: See package equivs -- The only way tcsh "rocks" is when the rocks are attached to its feet in the deepest part of a very deep lake.
