[PATCH] builddeb: introduce variables for control-file customization

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The debian packages coming out of "make *deb-pkg" lack some critical
information in the control-files e.g. the "Depends:" field. If one
tries to install a fresh system with such a "linux-image" debootstrap or
multistrap might try to install the kernel before its deps and the
package hooks will fail.

Different debian-based distros use different values for the missing
fields. And the values differ between distro versions as well. So
hardcoding of e.g. "Depends" is not possible.

This patch introduces an option variable for every debian package built
by builddeb. That allows advanced users to pass additional arguments to
"dpkg-gencontrol" e.g. to set "Depends". All the new variables are
optional.

for example:
make \
	KDEB_OPTS_IMAGE=\
"-DDepends='initramfs-tools | linux-initramfs-tool, kmod, linux-base'" \
	KDEB_OPTS_LIBC_HEADERS="-DMaintainer='root@machine' -v42" \
	bindeb-pkg
