.TH DPATCH.MAKE 7 "Dec 13 2011" "DPATCH 2" "dpatch"
.SH "NAME"
dpatch.make \- simplistic wrapper around \fBdpatch\fR(1) for \fBmake\fR(1).
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.BI include " /usr/share/dpatch/dpatch.make"
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
For backwards compatibility and ease of use, \fIdpatch.make\fR is
provided along with \fBdpatch\fR(1). Its purpose is to implement
generic \fBpatch\fR and \fBunpatch\fR rules that can be reused in
\fIdebian/rules\fR scripts.
.SH WARNING
.B dpatch
is deprecated, please switch to the `3.0 (quilt)' Debian source
package format instead. See
.I http://wiki.debian.org/Projects/DebSrc3.0#FAQ
for a short guide on how to do it.
.SH "USAGE"
Using \fIdpatch.make\fR is rather straightforward: one has to include
the file in \fIdebian/rules\fR, change the appropriate targets to
depend on \fBpatch\fR and \fBunpatch\fR, and that is all it takes.
Figuring out what the appropriate target is, requires some
thought. Generally, one has a \fBbuild\fR target, or
\fBconfig.status\fR, or \fBconfigure\fR (or any of these with a
\fB\-stamp\fR suffix). Most of the time these are called first during
the build, so one of these (the one that exists, and is not depended
upon by another one) has to be modified to depend on the \fBpatch\fR
target in \fIdpatch.make\fR.
Doing the same for the \fBclean\fR target is easier. One only has to
rename the old rule to, say, \fBclean\-patched\fR, then make a new one
that has \fBclean\-patched\fR and \fBunpatch\fR in its list of
prerequisites.
.SH "CUSTOMISATION"
There are a few variables which are used by \fIdpatch.make\fR, which
can be set before including it, in order to change the systems
behaviour a little.
These variables are:
.RS
.B DEB_SOURCE_PACKAGE
.RS
This is the name of the source package, used when creating the stamp
file. By default, it is empty.
.RE
.B DPATCH_STAMPDIR
.RS
This is the directory where stamp files will be put. Default is
\fIdebian/patched\fR.
.RE
.B DPATCH_STAMPFN
.RS
The name of the stamp file, which contains the patch descriptions and
other possible meta\-data. Default value is \fIpatch\-stamp\fR.
.RE
.B DPATCH_PREDEPS
.RS
A list of make targets to call before applying the dpatch.
.RE
.B DPATCH_WORKDIR
.RS
The target directory to apply patches to. By default, it is the
current directory.
.RE
.B PATCHLIST
.RS
The list of patches to apply. This is an alternative to
\fIdebian/patches/00list\fR \- that is, if this variable is not empty,
the contents of \fI00list\fR will be ignored, and this variable will
be used instead.
.RE
.RE
.SH "EXAMPLE"
.RS
.sp
.nf
include /usr/share/dpatch/dpatch.make
build: build-stamp
build-stamp: patch-stamp
${MAKE}
touch build-stamp
clean: clean1 unpatch
clean1:
${MAKE} clean
rm \-rf debian/files debian/substvars debian/imaginary\-package
.PHONY: patch unpatch ...
.
.
.
.fi
.sp
.RE
.SH "SIDE EFFECTS"
Using \fIdpatch.make\fR instead of calling dpatch directly has one
side effect: it will create a file called \fIpatch\-stamp\fR
containing some meta\-information extracted from the scriptlets.
Depending on a phony \fIpatch\fR target directly from \fIbuild\fR
target may cause \fIbuild\fR target to be reevaluated even when there
is no change to be done. Instead, try making \fIbuild-stamp\fR depend
on \fIpatch-stamp\fR as specified in this example.
