Hi,as the subject says I'm wondering where I can find the debian directory for tdevelop and be able to build the package(s)? And a second bonus questionI have ported kplayer to tde r14 but I don't know how to upload the modified code. The instructions I received are not clear to me. I also created a debian directory for this, but not sure if it should be uploaded and how to proceed with it. thanks in advance and regards
Very short answer is: take a source code of module from git, include 'debian' folder from tde-packaging git repository, update version in 'changelog' and you can build :)
To maintain the nightly-builds and preliminary-stable-builds repositories of course we have scripts that automate the creation of source packages - especially for maintaining versioning of packages. Unfortunately, these scripts are not yet published. However, you can use the script create-tarball, which can serve as a basis to get 'orig.tar.xz'.
Alternatively, you can use one very simple way - download the source package from the nightly-builds or from preliminary-stable-builds, add a patch to test and build. This is by far the easiest way.
For KPlayer please create a new bug report in Trinity Bugzilla and attach the patch to this bug report.
