Hi
I've just compiled SMPlayer from svn for Ubuntu 12.04.
It compiled OK but...
the package built is:- smplayer_0.8.5_i386.deb

@xubuntu:~$ smplayer -h
This is SMPlayer v. 0.8.5 (svn r5632) running on Linux

Does the file "create_deb.sh" need to be modified...
so that when built it shows version 0.8.6 instead of 0.8.5?

I think that the package built should be like this- smplayer_0.8.6-SVN-r5632_i386.deb

    Version 0.8.6 hasn't been released yet. The name of the package should be smplayer_0.8.5-SVN-r5632_i386.deb

    Do you have the package devscripts installed?
    It's used by create_deb.sh to generate the proper package name.

      No, devscripts was not installed... but I've installed it now.

      When I've compiled again...
      (I think it is SVN-r5637)
      This time the svn revision does not show when I use "smplayer -h"

      @xubuntu:~$ smplayer -h
      This is SMPlayer v. 0.8.6 running on Linux

      And the package built is:-
      smplayer_0.8.6_i386.deb

      Previously (a few months ago), when I compiled SMPlayer v0.8.5 from svn, it did show the revision as part of the deb package.

      I think something's still not right.

    Version 0.8.6 has just been released,so smplayer_0.8.6_i386.deb is correct.
