Debian package

How to build a debian package

First of all, you have to get the Tarball gajim-x.y.z.tar.gz.

Then you extract the tarball archive (without the debian folder) and add the debian folder:

tar xvzf gajim-x.y.z.tar.gz

mv gajim-x.y.z.tar.gz gajim_x.y.z.orig.tar.gz

cp -r path/to/debian gajim-0.7/

Then, before building the package, you run dch in the 'debian' folder to update the changelog:

cd gajim-x.y.z

dch -v x.y.z

  • dch -i to build a new package of the same release, if it's not a native Debian package, or to increment the version number if it is a native Debian package.

  • dch -v version to specify the versin number (dch -v 0.3 for example).

All the necessary information to build the package is included in the subversion repository.

So, to build it you only need to install the necessary packages (python-dev and libgtk2.0-dev), and then run:

dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot

in the gajim folder.

After that, you get the binary and the source packages in the parent folder.
