Well, to be honest I just wanted a .deb file to distribute to my VM in order to test and squash some bugs quickly, and in my machine, it was causing a recompilation every time I tried to build a new package, (26 minutes withh allyes). I just wanted to speed up things and avoid the full compilation that deb-pkg was doing (and mrproper would cause anyway) if I already had everything done. But I realized that bindeb-pkg does just what I want, so you can ignore this patch, sorry for the inconvenience. Regards, -- L. Alberto Giménez GnuPG key ID 0xDD4E27AB
