Re: 1st try at packaging perl program
Just to say thanks to all who helped. I am now leaving for a week (going to France, but not Bordeaux), and will continue on packaging when I get back. Thanks again, Etienne

1st try at packaging perl program
Hello, this is a near-copy of a mail I sent yesterday to debian-perl. I think it is relevant to this list. I just managed to build a working .deb from a perl program (a game that uses gtk and gnome), after a fair amount of cruft (*). I build it w/ the help of the "New Maintainer's Guide", the "Packaging Manual", the devel, mentors and perl mailing lists. There are still a few things that I don't understand, such as that below. Would anyone be willing to send me the source tree of a debian package that wraps a perl program/module (or send me the url for one)? Also, I read in last February's perl archive about Joey's CPAN::Debian and about Lupus's work in the same direction. Has anyone used them? I downloaded CPAN::Debian, but didn't look at it yet. Cheers, Etienne PS: Sample thing I don't understand : ### Lintian complains that : W: bloksi: perl-script-needs-dependency "libgtk-perl" ./usr/games/bloksi use Gtk I tried the following lines in the 1st paragraph of the rules files Depends: perl, libgtk-perl, libgnome-perl, libgtk-imlib-perl and Depends: ${shlibs:Depends},${perl:Depends} without results. (*) The source tree, .deb, etc are at http://anonimo.isr.ist.utl.pt/- ~etienne/debianized_bloksi). The real cruft part is in Makefile.PL's postamble part.
1st try at packaging perl program
Hello, this is a near-copy of a mail I sent yesterday to debian-perl. I think it is relevant to this list. I just managed to build a working .deb from a perl program (a game that uses gtk and gnome), after a fair amount of cruft (*). I build it w/ the help of the "New Maintainer's Guide", the "Packaging Manual", the devel, mentors and perl mailing lists. There are still a few things that I don't understand, such as that below. Would anyone be willing to send me the source tree of a debian package that wraps a perl program/module (or send me the url for one)? Also, I read in last February's perl archive about Joey's CPAN::Debian and about Lupus's work in the same direction. Has anyone used them? I downloaded CPAN::Debian, but didn't look at it yet. Cheers, Etienne PS: Sample thing I don't understand : ### Lintian complains that : W: bloksi: perl-script-needs-dependency "libgtk-perl" ./usr/games/bloksi use Gtk I tried the following lines in the 1st paragraph of the rules files Depends: perl, libgtk-perl, libgnome-perl, libgtk-imlib-perl and Depends: ${shlibs:Depends},${perl:Depends} without results.
