[02:08] <phma> I'm trying to package a program I wrote. I typed:
[02:08] <phma> bzr dh-make mirasol 0.1.0 ~/build/mirasol/cdbg/mirasol-0.1.0-Source.tar.bz2
[02:09] <phma> It replied:
[02:09] <phma> bzr: ERROR: Either run the command from an existing branch of upstream, or move mirasol aside and a new branch will be created there.
[02:09] <phma> man bzr doesn't say anything about dh-make, so I'm lost.
[02:10] <phma> I ran the command in a newly created ~/package directory.
[02:16] <ItzSwirlz> Hm
[02:16] <ItzSwirlz> did you run dh_make --createorig?
[02:18] <phma> no, I didn't see any instruction to do that.
[02:18] <phma> https://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/packaging-new-software.html
[02:21] <phma> The prompt is just "$", which doesn't tell me which directory I should be in when running the commands.
[02:23] <ItzSwirlz> hm
[02:23] <ItzSwirlz> I don't use bzr much so I cant help
[02:28] <phma> What directory should I run dh_make in?
[02:30] <phma> ls in ~/package looks like this: mirasol  mirasol_0.1.0.orig.tar.bz2
[02:31] <phma> mirasol is a directory containing the source code.
[03:08] <ItzSwirlz> dh_make should be ran in the root dir of the project
[03:13] <phma> You mean in the source directory? Nothing goes in the source directory except source files, backup files, and the .git directory.
