Marco Matarazzo commented on THRIFT-1825: ----------------------------------------- Roger, I didn't use it because I like to have control on the packaging steps, and creating a symbolic link it's not a big issue. Maybe moving the folder on his standard, expected position would make it easier to notice it's there (it took a while for me), but if it's "dirty" to your eyes (it's not something you actually mantain, in fact) you can just leave it the way it is, IMHO. I believe someone that is going to build a debian package can ignore how to create a debian folder from scratch, but for sure he must know how to use it when it's already there and should be able to hack around a bit and find it. BTW, I did exactly the same steps the script does, except I'm not deleting the debian link because I like to have it there, I'm adding -us -uc switches to dpkg-buildpackage as I can't/won't sign resulting packages, and I'm adding a -d for 0.8.0 under Ubuntu 12.04 because I know I can ignore the libmono-dev broken dependency warning as mono is there with just a different package name. Just my two cents, with a big IMHO disclaimer on top of everything. > Debian Packaging: cpp libs no longer included since 0.8 > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-1825 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1825 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Bug > Components: C++ - Library > Affects Versions: 0.8, 0.9 > Environment: Ubuntu Linux 12.04 > Reporter: Marco Matarazzo > Attachments: debian_cpp_lib.patch > > > From Thrift 0.8, cpp libs are no longer included in libthrift0 package. > I'm attaching a very small patch that solves the issue; though I'm not an > expert of debian packaging and I worked it out through a little hacking, it > should work. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
