[05:39] <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
[05:42] <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`.
[05:44] <KBar> Which was placed in ~.
[05:46] <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".
[05:47] <KBar> Okay. I change into that directory and execute it once more, it still complains. How do I proceed?
[05:49] <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".
[05:53] <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.
[06:49] <KBar> The guide doesn't mention it, but manpage says it has to be "run from inside the root directory of the source package".
[07:02] <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. :)
[10:04] <KBar> Yay. I got the patch!
