[Build-common-hackers] Bug#594042: cdbs: documentation about DEB_SRCDIR

Package: cdbs
Version: 0.4.88
Severity: normal

the documentation of CDBS states in the chapter "Basic Settings and Available
Variables" (file:///usr/share/doc/cdbs/cdbs-doc.html#basic-settings), that one
could use: 
DEB_SRCDIR = $(CURDIR)/src


this is wrong, cdbs will prefix $(CURDIR) to DEB_SRCDIR, so in the end the build
system will look for files in $(CURDIR)/$(CURDIR)/src, and will eventually fail
to find them.

the corrected line should read:
DEB_SRCDIR = src
