It's a good one, and I'd follow it except for my wish to have a "baseline" commit that matches "exactly" with the state of the apt source package maintained by Raspbian. This may be nonsensical reasoning, but in my present early learning phase, it strikes me as a logical point of departure. I've posted a "recipe" in my RPi repo on GitHub that details how to manually repair the source code error, then build and install 'dhcpcd'. Consequently I don't feel any urgency to get the new 'dhcpcd5' repo pushed out. FYI - I hope to use this time to ponder a few more questions: - how to add support for 'buster'? - how to (and if I should even try) incorporating the 8.1.3 - 8.1.9 releases from the 'dhcpcd' upstream sources? - linking the 'package' version # to the version # reported by 'dhcpcd' ? - how to verify my package complies with Debian standards? So - a few more things to think about, but I feel I'm making progress :) Thnx, ~S
