Hi,

may be this is a stupid question,
but I could not find, how to build the .deb-package of the current
debian stable version (0.6.11-1+b1) from the git repository.

I tried ./configure && make
as explained in
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/aptitude/pr01s04s02.en.html
But I do not like to install aptitude via make install into /usr/local

I tried to use
gbp buildpackage
but I do not know what to check out before running the command.

Surely, there must be a simple way that I overlooked somehow.

Regards,
Matthias
