Sorry, I'm terrible!
So the actual file shows:
Version: 0.42.5-extended
 
Shall I change it to Version: 0.42.5~cvs1-1 ?

Yes?  You don't need to ask, just try it!

.hc

Well, actually, build/DEBIAN/control is created when it's too late to change anything in it. Make package doesn't allow me to resume after error (no surprise), vut before make package there is no build directory.

Excuse me sirs, as my last mails to the list (in various topics) got unanswered i'm wondering if i made an irreversible mistake, maybe hurt someone...? Am i considered a troll by any chance?


It just got lost in the email overflow.  I think you need to edit packages/linux_make/debian/control, which gets copied over to build/DEBIAN/control during then build.

.hc

Well, once again then, the latest version that of that file i have has "Version: 0.42.5~cvs1-1".
It was the resulting file during build that had "Version: 0.42.5-extended".

So: what is that i can do?

Do you have 'sed' installed, i.e. does /usr/bin/sed exist, or /sw/bin/sed?  You could also try commenting out the section that changes the version in packages/linux_make/Makefile.  Comment out these two lines then set the version in packages/linux_make/debian/control:

sed -i 's|^Version:.*|Version: $(DEB_PD_VERSION)|' \
$(DESTDIR)/DEBIAN/control


BTW i want to download all sources again and start from the beginning (to make sure i don't run into problems that are already fixed), but svn.grrrr.org still doesn't work for me.

svn update --ignore-externals
