Package: debian-builder (1.8)

[ Source: debian-builder  ]

Rebuild Debian packages from source code

This is a simple tool which is designed to allow a local administrator to rebuild individual Debian packages from their source code.

With the aid of a few included wrapper scripts this allows automatically rebuilding a package and all its dependencies.

Note: This software is not designed to enhance your installation by producing optimized binaries, however this may be achieved with the aid of companion packages such as 'pentium-builder', or 'athlon-builder'.

The prime purpose of this package is to ease the testing of compiler patches such as the Stack Smashing Protection patch available from IBM.
