Re: [Devil-linux-develop] Adding Programs

Another things usefull is :

better add your sources and patches in src-extra than in src as when you
start the update_src, it will destroy any file which is not on the main
server ... some of your work could disapear ...

the make unpack will extract any archive in tmp/ as if it was in src/

You could then maintain your build env up to date without too much pain
during testing of your addings, and then only have to modify a few paths
,for ex if using patch files located in src-extra instead of src, when
submitting your work for inclusion in the cvs tree.

It's not the same when you start cvs update -d -P but be carefull as if
you have modified for ex scripts/linux , and in the same time that file
has envolved on the cvs server, you wont get the new one ... so you may
rename your modified scripts/package-xy to scripts/package-xy.mod or so
to run a diff after the cvs update command ...

Have Fun,
