Updating From New Distribution
| |
Suppose we have a new wajig-0.1.2.tar.gz and want to package
this up. Ensure this tar file is in the root directory, cd
into the old source directory, and ask Debian to update:
$ cd wajig-0.1.1
$ uupdate -u wajig-0.1.2.tar.gz
|
The updated source directory is ../wajig-0.1.2. We simply go
there and build the Debian package and install it in our archive:
$ cd ../wajig-0.1.2
$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
$ cd ..
$ lintian -i wajig_0.1.2-1_i386.changes
$ cp wajig_0.1.2* /var/www/debian/
$ cd /var/www/debian/
$ chmod go+r wajig_0.1.2*
$ apt-ftparchive packages . > Packages
$ apt-ftparchive sources . > Sources
$ gzip -c Packages > Packages.gz
$ gzip -c Sources > Sources.gz
|
Then install the new package with:
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install wajig
|
Of course, if you are already using wajig this becomes:
$ wajig update
$ wajig install wajig
