Build only a single .deb from apt-get source (that generates multiple .deb files)?

  • 772

Let's say I want to build a package like network-manager; I can do, say, on 14.04 trusty:

apt-get source network-manager
cd network-manager-0.9.8.8
debuild -us -uc

... this, however, gives me a bunch of .deb files when it is done, such as:

gir1.2-networkmanager-1.0_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb
libnm-glib4_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb
libnm-glib-dev_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb
libnm-glib-vpn1_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb
libnm-glib-vpn-dev_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb
libnm-util2_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb
libnm-util-dev_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb
network-manager_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb
network-manager-dbg_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb
network-manager-dev_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb

Say I want to build only network-manager_0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7.4_amd64.deb - is there a debuild (or dpkg-buildpackage) switch that would allow me to do that?

apt
