OLA Notes on Building Debian Packages

These are mostly Simon's notes to himself on how to build the packages to the Raspberry Pi. RenZO looks after the Debian config files.

• Install the helper packages

apt-get install dupload

• Download release tarball, unpack
• Edit debian/changelog to have the following

ola (0.8.22-1~squeeze1) squeeze; urgency=low

• Run debuild -B, to build the arch dependent, binary packages (arch-independent packages are done by Renzo).
• Make sure that your files are chmod 644 (-rw-r--r--)
• Make sure ~/.dupload.conf is setup correctly:

package config;

delete $preupload{'changes'};

$cfg{'openlighting-debian'} = {
  fqdn => "apt.openlighting.org",
  login => "simon",
  method => "scp",
  incoming => "/opt/packages/incoming/debian/",
};

$default_host = "openlighting-debian";

• Run dupload:

dupload ola_0.8.22-1_armel.changes

If having more than one dupload config:

dupload -t openlighting-ubuntu precise32/*changes
