Step 4: Update the changelog
- ----------------------------
a) Install the package devscripts.
$ sudo apt-get install devscripts
b) Tell devscripts who you are:
$ export DEBEMAIL="${YOUR_EMAIL}"
$ export DEBFULLNAME="${YOUR_FULL_NAME}"
You can put the above lines in ~/.profile
c) Update the changelog to set the new version and revision.
$ cd ~/fglrx-driver-debian-package/fglrx-driver-11-5
$ dch
An editor window opens and you add a new entry to the changelog. Here is
mine:
***********************************************************************
fglrx-driver (1:11-5-0panayk1) squeeze-testing; urgency=low
* Non-maintainer upload.
* New upstream release.

***********************************************************************
c1) squeeze-testing is the distribution. I maintain an apt-repo. You
could try lina-testing.
c2) 1:11-5-0panayk1 is the revision. Let's dissect it.
1 = this is the epoch
:
11-5 = this is the upstream (ATI) version
- -
0panayk1 = The Debian revision
Let's analyze the Debian revision.
0 = because this is not part of Debian yet.
panayk1 = the first revision by panayk.
So you could put something like: 1:11-5-0lina1
d) You can use dpkg --compare-versions to compare versions:
$ man dpkg
dpkg is in package... well dpkg!
$ sudo apt-get install dpkg
