[opensuse-buildservice] How to build deb packages
Hi, I have successfully build packages for my project "inkomstenbelasting" for openSUSE, fedora, mandrake and centos. I now would like to extent this to the debian based distributions. I would like to know how this should be done. I have read the wiki page http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Deb_builds, but after reading it, it was still not clear :( Neither does the email that the wiki page refers to (http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse- buildservice/2007-03/msg00067.html) make things clearer, perhaps the contrary :( The rpm that I would like to debianize is this one: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/rbos:/ib/openSUSE_11.1/repod... It seems like a simply package and it consist of only a few files: # rpm -ql inkomstenbelasting /usr/share/belastingdienst.nl /usr/share/doc/packages/inkomstenbelasting /usr/share/doc/packages/inkomstenbelasting/Aandachtspunten /usr/share/doc/packages/inkomstenbelasting/README /usr/share/doc/packages/inkomstenbelasting/TODO /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/inkomstenbelasting.png .... /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/inkomstenbelasting.png There is no debian package for it. The build server work directory holds the following files: inkomstenbelasting-2008.tar.bz2 inkomstenbelasting.changes inkomstenbelasting.spec The changes file is in the spec file format. What do I need to add to the spec file? Should I use the DebTransformTar tag to refer to inkomstenbelasting-2008.tar.bz2 file? Is there a .dsc file required or is this created from the spec file by the build service? What to do with the changes files, must it be renamed to e.g debian.changes, must the format be adjusted or will this be taken care of by the build service? Looking forward to your advice. -- Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
The peless package is a package that builds debian and ubuntu versions. I did not follow the method described in: http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Deb_builds according to that document I needed to create: Minimum set of files required to create .deb In order to create a .deb package successfully, you have to create at least these files: packageName.dsc debian.changelog debian.control debian.rules Instead I used the debian method of creating a debian source package. I uploaded the 3 debian files X.dsc, X.diff.gx, and X.orig.tar.gz and build. To make it work I had to add build-essential to the Build-Depends: line. According to the debian policy manual I should not have to do this, but I had to to make it build under the build-service. I created a bug in bugzilla because of this. -- Paul Elliott 1(512)837-1096 pelliott@BlackPatchPanel.com PMB 181, 11900 Metric Blvd Suite J http://www.io.com/~pelliott/pme/ Austin TX 78758-3117

You still need Debian package meta information. http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Deb_builds [...] The build service also uses some magic, some extra information can be given in the .dsc file in the form of 'debtransform' tags.

There are no Deb tags to be used in spec files. At least not that I know.
The .dsc file contains a Files section, should that be included? As the packageName_5.6.orig.tar.gz and packageName_5.6-1.diff.tar.gz can be created by the build service, it does not seem to be necessary to include those in the .dsc file.
I'm quite sure, that you still have to submit Debian Package information (debian/control, debian/rules, debian/changelog, ...) separately. I'd use the common Debian tools to generated them (dpkg-source). There's a deb rpm package available on openSUSE, SLE, ..., which can be used to do that. -- With best regards, Carsten Hoeger

That is indeed what the "Build Service/Deb builds" http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Deb_builds documentation seems to say. deb> Minimum set of files required to create .deb In order to create a deb> .deb package successfully, you have to create at least these files: deb> packageName.dsc deb> debian.changelog deb> debian.control deb> debian.rules deb> And of course a tarball (tar.bz2) that contains the package source deb> code to compile. But it is not true. To see this look at the peless project: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=peless&project=home%3Apellio... In the files section, no debian.changelog, debian.control, debian.rules. But of course, equivlents of these files are hiding in "peless_1.193-1.diff.gz". But the peless project builds Debian_5.0, Debian_Etch, and xUbuntu_8.10 successfully. The peless.dsc, peless_1.193-1.diff.gz, and peless_1.193.orig.tar.gz were created with uupdate as described in the Debian New Maintainers' Guide. http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ch-update.en.html These 3 files are a "debian source package" as defined by the debian people. By the way, it would be nice if someone could create a version of uupdate that runs on opensuse, that way people would not have to go to a debian system for this step. When you create your .debs this way, and they build on the build service, you know you can take your source package to a native debian build system, and it will build there.
I'd use the common Debian tools to generated them (dpkg-source). There's a deb rpm package available on openSUSE, SLE, ..., which can be used to do that.

It IS true. It's just that the debian package metadata is contained in the *.diff and *.dsc file(s). It's NOT contained in the *.spec file(s). That's what I wanted to make clear. -- With best regards, Carsten Hoeger

You got me going :) I can now run 'osc build xUbuntu_8.04 i586 <pkg>' :) To accomplish this, I needed the following files: debian.control debian.rules inkomstenbelasting-2008.tar.bz2 inkomstenbelasting.changes inkomstenbelasting.dsc The files are almost the same as Paul stated, but it is not debian.changelog, but packageName.changes in debian format. The build service will than take care that the changelog is included in as well the debian packages as well as the rpms. The files sectio in dsc file may remain empty as it is populated by the debtransformer, like: Format: 1.0 ....... Files: It is not needed to specify the Debtransform-Tar as the pristine source tarbal is figured out by the tools :) A debian.control file is required otherwise the following and confusing error is reported: dpkg-source: warning: extracting unsigned source package (/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/inkomstenbelasting.dsc) dpkg-source: error: Files field contains invalid filename `inkomstenbelasting-2008.tar.gz' The next step is now to include the commands that I have in the rpm spec file into the debian pkg build. The commands are the following ones: %prep %setup -q %build %install %__install -d -m 755 %{buildroot}%{_bindir} %__install -d -m 755 %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/belastingdienst.nl # %__install -d -m 755 %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/applications # sed s/@JAAR@/%{year}/ ib.desktop > %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/applications/inkomstenbelasting.desktop %__install -d -m 755 %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/icons/hicolor for D in 16x16 22x22 32x32 48x48 64x64 128x128; do %__install -d -m 755 %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/icons/hicolor/$D/apps %__install -m 644 icons/$D/inkomstenbelasting.png %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/icons/hicolor/$D/apps done Is there any debian pkg guru out there, who can tell how the above command sequence should look like in a debian.rules file?

That's the problem, there are no upstream tarballs hence I need to come with the code.

I wonder, maybe this is even better? You can create directories and subdirectories and tar.gz'em all.

dh_install command installs all files which are listed in PACKAGENAME.install file. So, all you have to do, is to add dh_install to rules file. *If* you want to use .install routines. In rules file (it's only Makefile anyway): install: belastingdienst.nl debian/PACKAGENAME/usr/share/PACKAGENAME/belastingdienst.nl in debian.PACKAGENAME.install: usr/share/PACKAGENAME/belastingdienst.nl Or you can just copy all files in `debian/rules install`.

That's not the way to go I think; the package build process should be used to create the directory structure.

I had a look at a php package that copied the files in the debian/rules files and that helped a lot.

Your readline-common.deb doesn't seem to be a 'deb' package.

It IS true. It's just that the debian package metadata is contained in the *.diff and *.dsc file(s). It's NOT contained in the *.spec file(s). That's what I wanted to make clear.
Well the way I read it, it is giving the impression that you must have files of the form debian.control, debian.rules, ect in the Files section. Now the info in these files has to be there somehow, directly or directly, but it can be concealed. In the .diff.gz file. For some people it is more convenient to work with true debian source packages. For example, I am the upstream source for the peless package. It is actually a package maintained by others in the official debian repository. If I want to check that my upstream changes I have made to the source do not require any changes to the debian files, I install the existing debian source package, and then do a "uupdate" with my new upstream source. That is what the debian people will do when I tell them about my upstream changes. I then upload the resulting debian source package to the build service and check that it builds correctly. When this happens I know that my package does not require any changes to the debian build files, or I know what those changes are. I then can report to the debian people what changes my new release will require if any to the debian build files. I never mess with files of the form debian.rules ect on the build service. Instead I always deal in true debian source packages. The documentation does not make it clear that this is an option unless you read it with a microscope. -- Paul Elliott 1(512)837-1096 pelliott@BlackPatchPanel.com PMB 181, 11900 Metric Blvd Suite J http://www.io.com/~pelliott/pme/ Austin TX 78758-3117
