decred.deb

This repository contains scripts to generate packages for various Decred software in the .deb format used by Debian and its derivatives such as Ubuntu. The script ./build.sh takes in a target package to build then spawns a Docker container to run debuild and other linting tools. The generated .deb package can then be installed directly with dpkg -i pacakge.deb or published to an APT repository. The builds are reproducible and hosted at the APT repository https://deb.cyberbits.eu/decred/
