[opensuse-buildservice] building DEB packages
Hi, I think quite some people are building DEB packages in OBS so it seems to work in principle. Still I have a hard time to build a very simple package successfully by using https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Debian_builds I have a non-debian-named tarball which includes a debian/ directory containing basically everything required (I think). So what I did was adding this tarball to the OBS package together with a DSC file. So from the above documentation I was expecting that a DSC file would be enough while the remaining information would be extracted and used automatically from the tarball. But in any case my build seems to not even reach this step. All it says is something like: [ 225s] dpkg-source: warning: extracting unsigned source package (/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/alfred-json.dsc) [ 225s] dpkg-source: error: unrecognized file for a v1.0 source package: alfred-json-0.3.1.tar.gz [ 225s] dpkg-source: info: extracting alfred-json in /usr/src/packages/BUILD [ 225s] ----------------------------------------------------------------- [ 225s] ----- building alfred-json.dsc (user abuild) [ 225s] ----------------------------------------------------------------- [ 225s] ----------------------------------------------------------------- [ 225s] -su: line 0: cd: /usr/src/packages/BUILD: No such file or directory [ 225s] [ 225s] cloud128 failed "build alfred-json.dsc" at Wed Mar 16 23:23:56 UTC 2016. I've tried different things meanwhile including - leaving out file entries in the DSC file - use fake data in the files section as proposed by the documentation The build always ended with similar messages but always with dpkg-source errors like "not matching size" etc. So what is the right way to build a DEB package with what I have as described above? (Package I'm trying to build is this one: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:wrosenauer:freifunk/alfred-json) Thanks, Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org

Don't you have these files there? debian.changelog debian.control debian.rules I see that there is a debian folder inside the your tar ball. When I was building debian packages on OBS I had always these 3 files in parallel to the tar ball. cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org

You don't need to extract all of them. I extract the the changelog, so that OBS can add the version number. Additionally a dummy debian.XXX file to trigger debtransform. The dsc-File also contains debian specific tags, so that the full version number is inserted: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:e9925248:grandorgue/grandorgue Regards, Martin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks a lot for the example and the pointers. I think I got it working. Now there is "only" an error left in the build process itself apparently. Somehow the documentation I used before leaves out a few important comments which makes it quite hard :-( Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org

The name for the patch series is called debian.series. There is a working sample: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:e9925248:grandorgue:noopt/grand...

Thanks again. I took the linked mail in the manual as reference: "- all patches from a "debian.series" file, or, if it doesn't exist, a "series" file." But the latter indeed doesn't work. Finally my package is building. Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
