Building this package for Debian
--------------------------------
This source package need no special handling for normal package builds.
Patching this package for Debian
--------------------------------
If you consider doing a non-maintainer update (NMU) then please note
that this package is developed at the Alioth collab-maint area for which
all Debian Developers have write access. You are encouraged to prepare
your NMU there. And please try ping us before final release, in case we
have some last minute comments on it.
Developing this package for Debian
----------------------------------
The source of this package is developed using git and the helper tool
git-buildpackage, with all official releases tagged and signed and
binary diffs of tarballs stored using pristine-tar. This is documented
below /usr/share/doc/git-buildpackage/manual-html/ .
A custom build target shows current upstream and packaging versions:
debian/rules print-version
Current upstream tarball can be prepared using this other build target:
debian/rules get-orig-source
To switch to newer upstream source, first add a dummy changelog entry
and comment out DEB_UPSTREAM_TARBALL_MD5 before getting the source:
dch -v ${new_upstream_version}-1 "Dummy changelog entry"
sed -i -e 's/^\(DEB_UPSTREAM_TARBALL_MD5\b\)/#\1/' debian/rules
debian/rules get-orig-source
Store new md5sum to help ensure identical source is received later.
Setting DEB_MAINTAINER_MODE=1 enables additional build routines helpful
during development of the package, but unfit for normal builds. This
typically includes the CDBS feature of auto-updating debian/control with
CDBS-related build-dependencies, which is forbidden by Debian Policy as
build environment must not change during automated builds.
Maintaining packaging build routines
------------------------------------
This source package wraps debhelper commands and other tedious parts of
the build routines using the CDBS framework. Please refer to the actual
makefile snippets included from debian/rules for details on their
purpose and ways to override defaults. Additionally, makefile snippets
included from below /usr/share/cdbs may also be documented in
/usr/share/doc/cdbs/cdbs-doc.pdf.gz .
