#41 Debian build dependencies

[Moritz Hoffmann]

Hi,
I created a small dep-package that depends on all packages required for building ooRexx from sources. I attach the directory here as tar.gz. It includes the control file and a built deb file.

To create the deb-file do the following:
moritz@debian:~/dev$ dpkg-deb -b oorexx-build-dep
dpkg-deb: building package oorexx-build-dep' inoorexx-build-dep.deb'.

To install it do:
debian:/home/moritz/dev# dpkg -i oorexx-build-dep.deb
debian:/home/moritz/dev# apt-get install -f

This has been tested on Debian 4.0, it should work on other dpkg-based platforms as well. I'd be glad if someone could verify this.

Hi Moritz

This sounds useful, thanks. I'm kind of swamped with work right now, it will probably be a few days before I get a chance to take a close look at it.

Maybe we want to add subversion to the dependencies as well to make the downloading of the source easier. Just add subversion to the Depends: field in the control file and rebuild the archive.

Moritz, I commited your contribution to the build-util part of the repository. And yeah, I think subversion should be included, so I added it to the depends field.

This was a good contribution, thanks.

I didn't get a chance to test it on another dpkg-based system yet, but it looks good to me. I thought it better to add it to the repository, if we need to tweak something we can always do that.
