[penemo-devel] diff for penemo (debianization)

[Rob H. <ro...@na...>]

Hey,


I am attaching a diff for the latest penemo CVS, it adds a debian/
directory and enables you to create a .deb package for penemo.

Works fine for 3.0 (woody), this is how I have it installed on 
my box now. To use it after patching :

chmod +x debian/rules
debian/rules binary

Then you get a ../penemo_1.0.1-1_i386.deb ( if you are on i386 ) :)

I set it up to only depend on Perl, I am listed as maintainer ( this
is for maintainer of the deb pkg not the program itself, let me know
if you want this changed Nick, we can make it "Penemo Project" and
have the address be pe...@pe... or something "community-supported" ).

There are a couple problems, but they are actually issues with
the Makefile, not my additions... conf files are not installed, and 
CVS dirs are, both of which should be corrected.

Also - I had to modify the Makefile to understand DESTDIR, so the
way to install it by hand (in bash) is :

export DESTDIR=(destination)
make install

Considering that it was "/usr/local/test" before this probably
isn't so bad :) could be better of course.

I'll attach a diff to fix the Makefile later.

Cool thing about the deb pkg is that we could set it up so
you can configure penemo using dpkg-reconfigure, so you
get asked nice, easy questions on install :)

Finally, I'm working on a cron script to go into this deb package,
that we could drop into /etc/cron.d/ to have penemo start running
after it's been configured by Debian.



Thanks,
Rob
