Comment 2 for bug 238864

Hmm, taking a closer look at the manpage: "Note that these variables can also be manipulated on the command line with the undocumented --dkmstree, --sourcetree and --installtree options. Whoops, did I just document these?"

I think that provides pretty much what I need. :-)

So, with a series of two or three commands, the current version can achieve what I have in mind. Shall I leave this open and work on a more integrated solution to produce a .deb/.rpm from a source tree with just one command (no adding, etc.)? Or do you want to leave the design as it is?

Thanks! Martin
