Here are the instructions: ====== Build Puppet 2.6 RC2 Debian Packages ====== Prerequisites apt-get install build-essential devscripts Install needed dependencies apt-get build-dep puppet Prepare directory structure cd mkdir -p build/puppet cd build/puppet Download the needed Debian source files from the latest version, and latest version of puppet wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/puppet/puppet_0.25.5-1.debian.tar.gz wget http://puppetlabs.com/downloads/puppet/puppet-2.6.0rc2.tar.gz Rename the Puppet tar file to Debian style mv puppet-2.6.0rc2.tar.gz puppet_2.6.0rc2.orig.tar.gz Extract the tar files tar zxvf puppet_2.6.0rc2.orig.tar.gz tar zxvf puppet_0.25.5-1.debian.tar.gz -C puppet-2.6.0rc2 Update the changelog cd puppet-2.6.0rc2 dch -v 2.6.0rc2-1 Remove the old patches mv debian/patches /tmp Build the Debian packages dpkg-buildpackage -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
