- Debian packaging notes by Graeme Humphries <graeme@sudo.ca>:
- Here's the short list on how to build your own Debian/Ubuntu package:
- * Install and configure pbuilder (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto)
- * cd into this source directory, and create a fake upstream tarball:
- tar -cJvf ../bfgminer_${VERSION}.orig.tar.xz *
- * Create the Debian specific bitforce module config from its patch:
- patch -p1 < debian/patches/bfgminer-bitforce.diff
- * Build the package using pbuilder:
- pdebuild
- * The built package should end up in /var/cache/pbuilder/results
- Debian packaging depends on new release versions being entered into debian/changelog. The versions in that file need
- the Debian/Ubuntu release specific suffix (0precise1) as all packages go into a shared pool, and so they need to have distinct
- names for different releases.
- When a new release happens, just add it with some brief changelog notes to that file, and it should be ready
- to generate a new source package and upload to the Launchpad PPA.
