Package: dkms
Version: 2.8.4-3
Followup-For: Bug #1009179
I'd like to also signal that I'm interested in keeping this
functionality around. I looked at the current dkms source and it's not
*that* complicatd. It's basically one (rather big, 100 lines) shell
function which does everything.
Also, it seems to me we should be able to get away with just
replicating mkdsc: once we have a source package, we can use our
normal tools to build the rest...
It looks like it's basically:
invoke_command "cp -ar '$DEBDIR/' '$temp_dir_debian'" "copying template"
invoke_command "cp -Lpr '$dkms_tree/$module/$module_version/source'
'$temp_dir_debian/$module-$module_version'" "Copying source tree"
invoke_command "dpkg-buildpackage -S -us -uc 1>/dev/null" "Building source
package" || \
Now obviously, maybe those templates are gone too so we'd need to keep
that up to date, but it seems that's somewhat feasible...
