==Miscellaneous things== * If you want to build a binary package, the package has to be 'installed'. The correct way to do this is by using the utility fakeroot, which fakes an install, so that you can build a binary package as non-root and without really installing it. The following command should build a binary package: ::fakeroot debian/rules binary The binary target is yet another Makefile target that will first execute a configure, build and install if still necessary. If you already did build the package, then only an install would first be done, etc. * While testing changes that you make to the code, you can (re)build the package with the command: ::debian/rules build * clean the source tree? (fakeroot debian/rules clean)
