| 4 | Building Samba Packages for Debian GNU/Linux
|
|---|
| 5 | --------------------------------------------
|
|---|
| 6 |
|
|---|
| 7 | Building Debian packages is not as hard as some people might think.
|
|---|
| 8 | The following instructions will allow you to build your own Samba
|
|---|
| 9 | Debian packages. These instructions and the files in packaging/Debian/
|
|---|
| 10 | should be current as of Samba 3.0.2, and allow you to build Debian
|
|---|
| 11 | packages for Debian unstable (so you need some development packages
|
|---|
| 12 | available only in Debian unstable.) If you are using something newer
|
|---|
| 13 | than 3.0.2 you might want to try to follow the instructions to see if
|
|---|
| 14 | patches apply cleanly. If some patches don't apply cleanly please e-mail
|
|---|
| 15 | samba@packages.debian.org since we might have fixed patches that we have
|
|---|
| 16 | not yet integrated into upstream Samba.
|
|---|
| 17 |
|
|---|
| 18 | We try to maintain as much compatibility with previous releases
|
|---|
| 19 | of Debian as possible, so it is possible that the files in
|
|---|
| 20 | packaging/Debian/ can also be used to build Samba Debian packages for
|
|---|
| 21 | other Debian releases. However, sometimes this is just not possible
|
|---|
| 22 | because we need to use stuff that is only available on Debian unstable.
|
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 | Instructions
|
|---|
| 25 | ------------
|
|---|
| 26 |
|
|---|
| 27 | If you want to build Samba packages for Debian and you just want to use
|
|---|
| 28 | upstream sources, i.e. you don't want to wait for us to put official
|
|---|
| 29 | packages out, or you want packages for a Debian version for which we
|
|---|
| 30 | don't provide deb's, or you don't want to use official packages, or
|
|---|
| 31 | you want to add --this-cool-switch to configure, or whatever, follow
|
|---|
| 32 | these instructions:
|
|---|
| 33 |
|
|---|
| 34 | 0) Make sure you have the following packages installed (in addition
|
|---|
| 35 | to the normal Debian development packages -- dpkg-dev, libc6-dev,
|
|---|
| 36 | devscripts, etc.):
|
|---|
| 37 |
|
|---|
| 38 | autoconf
|
|---|
| 39 | debhelper (>= 4.1.13)
|
|---|
| 40 | libpam0g-dev
|
|---|
| 41 | libreadline4-dev
|
|---|
| 42 | libcupsys2-dev
|
|---|
| 43 | libacl1-dev, libacl1 (>= 2.2.11-1)
|
|---|
| 44 | libkrb5-dev
|
|---|
| 45 | libldap2-dev
|
|---|
| 46 | po-debconf
|
|---|
| 47 | python2.3-dev
|
|---|
| 48 |
|
|---|
| 49 | Notes regarding the packages required to build Samba Debian packages:
|
|---|
| 50 |
|
|---|
| 51 | * The libcupsys2-dev is not available in Debian Potato (Debian 2.2).
|
|---|
| 52 | That's fine; the configure script won't detect CUPS support and the
|
|---|
| 53 | resulting binaries won't support CUPS.
|
|---|
| 54 |
|
|---|
| 55 | * The list above is current as of samba-3.0.0rc2, but it can get
|
|---|
| 56 | out of date. The best way to check what packages are required to
|
|---|
| 57 | build the samba packages on Debian is to look for the Build-Depends:
|
|---|
| 58 | field in the file debian/control.
|
|---|
| 59 |
|
|---|
| 60 | 1) cd samba[-<version>]. For example, "cd samba-3.0.2".
|
|---|
| 61 | 2) cp -a packaging/Debian/debian/ .
|
|---|
| 62 | It's important that you copy instead of symlink because the build
|
|---|
| 63 | tools in Potato have a problem that prevents the build to work with
|
|---|
| 64 | a symlink. If you are running a recent Debian distribution you don't
|
|---|
| 65 | have to copy the directory and you can use a symlink instead:
|
|---|
| 66 | "ln -s packaging/Debian/debian/ ."
|
|---|
| 67 | 3) dch -i (this is completely optional - only do it if you understand
|
|---|
| 68 | Debian version numbers! Don't complain later if you can't upgrade
|
|---|
| 69 | to official versions of the Samba packages for Debian.)
|
|---|
| 70 | - Edit the changelog and make sure the version is right. For example,
|
|---|
| 71 | for Samba 3.0.2, the version number should something like 3.0.2-0.1.
|
|---|
| 72 | 4) Run 'fakeroot debian/rules binary'.
|
|---|
| 73 | 5) That's it. Your new packages should be in ../. Install with dpkg.
|
|---|
| 74 |
|
|---|
| 75 | Please e-mail samba@packages.debian.org with comments, questions or
|
|---|
| 76 | suggestions. Please talk to us and not to the Samba Team. They have
|
|---|
| 77 | better things to do and know nothing about the Debian packaging system.
