    changing manpage helloworld example

    I've done the first bit of the PackagingGuide, just before they are explaining CDBS (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete) I had a working .deb, great.

    Now I want to edit the tekst in the manpage and create a new .deb with my changes. But whatever I do, after every "debuild", and after installing the new .deb the "man hello" is still the same, I dont get it.

    Code:
    niels@inoue:~/motu/hello/hello-2.1.1$ ls
    ABOUT-NLS    config.guess   configure     INSTALL      man            stamp-h
    aclocal.m4   config.h       configure.ac  install-sh   missing        stamp-h1
    AUTHORS      config.h.in    contrib       intl         mkinstalldirs  tests
    BUGS         config.log     COPYING       m4           NEWS           THANKS
    build-stamp  config.rpath   debian        Makefile     po             TODO
    ChangeLog    config.status  depcomp       Makefile.am  README
    ChangeLog.O  config.sub     doc           Makefile.in  src
    Code:
    niels@inoue:~/motu/hello/hello-2.1.1$ cd man
    niels@inoue:~/motu/hello/hello-2.1.1/man$ ls
    ChangeLog  hello.1  help2man  Makefile  Makefile.am  Makefile.in
    niels@inoue:~/motu/hello/hello-2.1.1/man$
    I edited hello.1 but after a rebuild nothing is changed in the manpage..
