Quoting Ivan S. Dubrov [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
The problem is I can't find thorough documentation or some kind of How To
there I can find how to write these extensions. Although they just simply
pieces of make-files, I find it difficult to start understanding them. For
example, the diffirence between rule and class are not very clear for me.
I like CDBS a lot and all my packages use it. Unfortunately, the
documentation is not very extensive. OTOH, the variables are well
documented in the makefiles, i.e. just read through
/usr/share/cdbs/1/{class,rules/*
Furthermore, there is
https://perso.duckcorp.org/duck/cdbs-doc/cdbs-doc.xhtml
in English and
http://www.ngolde.de/cdbs.html
in German.
Other things, I did: I looked for packages build-depending on
CDBS and stole from the debian/rules, and I asked stupid
questions on the CDBS hackers spam exploder:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/build-common-hackers
With some luck, questions get answered.
Cheers, WB
