Description

Building source packages with our custom script build-debs.sh does not work on recent Debian packages using Quilt to make package diffs. Instead of producing a single .diff.gz file, diffs are split and located in the directory debian/patches/ of the modified package source. We need then to:

  1. find a way to put the diff of Quilt packages on SVN
  2. find how to build a Quilt package from build-debs.sh

The first thing to do is certainly to first browse documentation on Quilt. Maybe a command can get these patch files out of the source code for versionning.
