debian: update packaging #352
Conversation
|
This is the start of my effort to try and get this into debian (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=695545) This first change just cleans up some style errors and makes it so that it should be possible to create from the repository and from a released tarball. @nekromant FYI |

I've restored git, subversion and bzip2 in this update. I've left off gzip since it's in build-essentials. I've also switched back to libtool-bin. |
|
Do you have any updates for this? |
|
Hi Bryan, I wasn't getting much luck on the debian lists[1]. I really need a debian developer to sponsor this and to provide feedback. Anyone know one? [1] - https://lists.debian.org/debian-wnpp/2016/02/msg00895.html |
|
I'll set this to waiting for response until that happens then. |
|
@cpackham Any updates? |
|
Hi Bryan, Sorry no nothing. I'll at least update this based on the 1.23 release. Probably won't have any time to spend on it for a while. |

Can you tell me how to test this debian framework so that I can check it still works at the time of the next release? |
|
testing shouldn't be too hard something along the lines of Then maybe build one of the example defconfigs |

Ok, I'll merge and try it out. |

A few notes:

seems wrong.

Hmm I'm actually building on (k)ubuntu (16.04) and inside a debian-jessie
chroot I'll take a look. I think I may have been running debuild without
the -i and -b.
We can probably drop libncursesw5-dev.
config.sub/config.guess don't appear to be part of the git repo. Where you
building in a clean worktree? There are probably options to tell deb-helper
to avoid re-running certain steps.

Yes they are, in |

Have a look at #738 - this fixes the remaining warnings/errors from lintian on my installation. The question about Ubuntu flavor of deb package remains, though: |
