Why Ubuntu Loves dpatch

Posted: Sun, 16 October 2005 | permalink | No comments

Joey, I strongly suspect that the reason that Ubuntu loves converting packages to use dpatch is because the version control tools that are being built in their secret workshops will be aimed around keeping patches separate, and it's reasonable to assume that Ubuntu will be heavily supporting the Wig-and-Pen dpkg source format, considering the originators of the format (and the fact that it looks like pretty decent technology).
