Hello, I've just spent a few hours packaging libaugeas-ruby. As I don't do this sort of thing very frequently, I would be glad to have some feedback. My idea would of course be to see this package end up in debian.
I largely inspired myself from what I found in [1]. I've uploaded my
package onto ubuntu's build service. It can be dget'ed at [2].
I have at least two questions so far:
- the upstream author named the ruby binding "_augeas.{c,so}". Is the
prepended underscore a problem ? Should I try to rename this file ?
- the mkmf module is used to generate a makefile, which links a few
libraries who are apparently not necessary and dpkg-shlibdeps complains
about it (pbuilder logs found at [3]). Any idea how could this be
fixed ?
Please let me know if I would better go and post this on -mentors...
Thanks !
Marc
