For example, + for Samba 2.2.3, the version number should be 2.2.3-0.1 (use + a number less than 1 like 0.1, 0.2, etc. so there is no conflict + with future upgrades to the official Debian packages.) +4) Run 'debian/rules binary'. + - It is better that you prefix the above command with 'fakeroot'. + If you have problems you might try building as root. +5) That's it. Your new packages should be in ../. Install with dpkg. + +Please e-mail samba@packages.debian.org with comments, question or +usggestions. Please talk to us and not to the Samba Team.
