From local source tree to Debian package

2007-03-19 Thread Ben Finney
Howdy all,

Most program packages start life as a single source code tree, with
everything conveniently located under a package-specific hierarchy:
programs, library modules, runtime configuration files, data files,
etc. The programs need to allow for those files to be distributed all
over the filesystem hierarchy, and in Debian we have a policy for
where those files should go.

Apart from the runtime programs' concerns, there is also the task of
building the Debian package. Part of this involves taking those files
-- which are still (usually) located under a single package-specific
hierarchy -- and installing them to the Debian-specified locations
so they can be packaged by later steps of the build process.

Writing a bunch of 'cp' or 'install' commands in the 'debian/rules'
file seems like drudgery and is certainly prone to error. What tools
are there to assist Debian packagers in making this task more
automated?

Well, make install typically puts them somewhere - see the use of CURDIR 
in the new maintainers guide, like at 
http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ch-dreq.en.html .

Hi all,

I am sometimes wondering what is the best approach for packages with no
makefiles :

a) dh_install,
b) Write a Makefile, submit it to Upstream, and ship it in the debian
   directory in the meantime. (as a patch ? as a file to be moved in at
   the begining of the install rule in debian/rules ?).

The advantage of b) is that it then contributes to trivialise the
packaging rules, especially if it is incorporated upstream.

Have a nice day,

I'm thinking specifically of packages that don't have such a concept
already; especially for interpreted languages, many packages have
instructions along the lines of put the files where you need them,
and they don't generally have a Makefile to do that.

 Does that help some?  You should check out
 http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ if you haven't yet.

I have, but I should probably read it some more. Thanks.

I agree that 'make install' is something that most non-trivial
packages need regardless of Debian policy, even if it doesn't occur to
their authors. Submit it upstream, definitely.

The package is lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 413987

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

It is a dependancy of the second-life viewer application, and Bernd Zeimetz
intends to package a Gimp plugin that uses it to. [1]

I'm packaging it as a dependancy of the second-life viewer, although it
has been suggested that it can be built without ELFIO. I'll be looking
into that while packaging up slviewer, so unless you know of another
use for the library, there's no particular hurry on this one.
