| KBar | In the Ubuntu Packaging Guide it is stated that the executable file for bumprace is located at /usr/bin/bumprace which is factually incorrect. I filed a bug report #1957197 | 05:39 |
|---|---|---|
| KBar | Following the instructions in the next paragraph, I, first, grabbed the source code of the `ubuntu-packaging-guide` package: `pull-lp-source ubuntu-packaging-guide`. | 05:42 |
| KBar | Which was placed in ~. | 05:44 |
| KBar | Next, it suggests creating a patch with `edit-patch 99-new-patch`. Issuing the command from ~ yields an error message: "no debian/control file in the directory". | 05:46 |
| KBar | Okay. I change into that directory and execute it once more, it still complains. How do I proceed? | 05:47 |
| KBar | To clarify, I want to try to fix the bug I filed a report against, i.e. replace all instances of "/usr/bin/bumprace" with "/usr/games/bumprace". | 05:49 |
| KBar | I know I can use `patch`, then `diff -u` and finally attach the patch to the bug report but I'd like to follow the standard procedure that's described in the guide. | 05:53 |
| KBar | The guide doesn't mention it, but manpage says it has to be "run from inside the root directory of the source package". | 06:49 |
| KBar | Looks like I need to create a new patch first. The order of paragraphs is a bit weird. It's all over the place. Not a walkthrough, more like a walkover. :) | 07:02 |
| KBar | Yay. I got the patch! | 10:04 |
