Hello,

This is very useful information. Can you (or somebody else) please write this
down together as a sub-page of the the developer page
https://git.devuan.org/devuan/devuan-project/wikis/guidelines
(or wherever it belongs) and update the build procedure for different cases:
native, git and quilt.

This is very useful for people adopting packages for Devuan (like me).

A follow-up question: You mention dpkg-buildpackage, what about git-
buildpackage?
