Is it possible to have different control files for different debian platforms?
I have a package that has a Build-requires dependancy of libboost-dev for most debian platforms, however, xUbuntu 9.04 wants this to be libboost1.35-dev.
Is it possible to have a control-xUbuntu_9.04 file the same way you can have a foo-Fedora_Extras_6.spec for rpm based distributions?
What is the best way to handle this?
I don't think you can ifdef a debian control file the way you can a rpm spec file.
Thank You.
In "Build Service/prjconf" http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/prjconf
I find:
Substitute
Packages get renamed or are named different for different distributions. You can specify per repository dependency rewrite rules.
%if 0%{?suse_version} Substitute: Canna-libs canna-libs %endif %if 0%{?fedora_version} Substitute: canna-libs Canna-libs %endif
On openSUSE, the package is named "canna-libs", so replace all requirements for "Canna-libs" to "canna-libs" - and vice versa for Fedora.
Could I use this feature to do a substitute of libboost1.35-dev for libboost-dev only for xUbuntu 9.04?
Is there an "%if" expression for the ubuntu and debian versions?
Yes, you can find it yourself via looking at the project config of Ubuntu and Debian projects. Or just trust me when I say to use %ubuntu_version ;)
How are they named? That is, how do I write the following psudo-code formally?
if (ubumtu 9.04) then %if 0%{?ubuntu_version}
Substitute: libboost1.35-dev libboost-dev endif
%endif
Could I put an "Required:" statement inside such a conditional scructure?
How do I write the following psudo-code formally?
if (debian_based distribution) then
%if 0%{?debian_version}
Required: build-essential endif
If this could be written it might be the solution to this bug! : https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471298
Thank You.
