-Building Samba Packages for Debian GNU/Linux
---------------------------------------------
-
-Building Debian packages is not as hard as some people might think.
-The following instructions will allow you to build your own Samba
-Debian packages. These instructions and the files in packaging/Debian/
-are current as of Samba 3.0.0, and allow you to build Debian packages
-for Debian unstable (so you need some development packages available
-only in Debian unstable.) If you are using something newer than 3.0.0
-you might want to try to follow the instructions to see if patches
-apply cleanly. If some patches don't apply cleanly please e-mail
-samba@packages.debian.org since we might have fixed patches that we have
-not yet integrated into upstream Samba.
-
-We try to maintain as much compatibility with previous releases
-of Debian as possible, so it is possible that the files in
-packaging/Debian/ can also be used to build Samba Debian packages for
-other Debian releases. However, sometimes this is just not possible
-because we need to use stuff that is only available on Debian unstable.
-
-Instructions
-------------
-
-If you want to build Samba packages for Debian and you just want to use
-upstream sources, i.e. you don't want to wait for us to put official
-packages out, or you want packages for a Debian version for which we
-don't provide deb's, or you don't want to use official packages, or
-you want to add --this-cool-switch to configure, or whatever, follow
-these instructions:
-
-0) Make sure you have the following packages installed (in addition
-to the normal Debian development packages -- dpkg-dev, libc6-dev,
-devscripts, etc.):
-
- autoconf
- debhelper
- libpam0g-dev
- libreadline4-dev
- libcupsys2-dev
- acl-dev, libacl1
- libkrb5-dev
- libldap2-dev
- python2.2-dev
-
- Notes regarding the packages required to build Samba Debian packages:
-
- * The libcupsys2-dev is not available in Debian Potato (Debian 2.2).
- That's fine; the configure script won't detect CUPS support and the
- resulting binaries won't support CUPS.
-
- * The list above is current as of samba-3.0.0rc2, but it can get
- out of date. The best way to check what packages are required to
- build the samba packages on Debian is to look for the Build-Depends:
- field in the file debian/control.
-
-1) cd samba[-<version>]. For example, "cd samba-3.0.0rc2".
-2) cp -a packaging/Debian/debian/ debian
- It's important that you copy instead of symlink because the build
- tools in Potato have a problem that prevents the build to work with
- a symlink.
-3) dch -i (this is completely optional - only do it if you understand
- Debian version numbers! Don't complain later if you can't upgrade
- to official versions of the Samba packages for Debian.)
- - Edit the changelog and make sure the version is right. For example,
- for Samba 3.0.0beta3, the version number should something like
- 3.0.0beta3-0.1.
-4) Run 'debian/rules binary'.
- - It is better that you prefix the above command with 'fakeroot'.
- If you have problems you might try building as root.
-5) That's it. Your new packages should be in ../. Install with dpkg.
-
-Please e-mail samba@packages.debian.org with comments, questions or
-suggestions. Please talk to us and not to the Samba Team. They have
-better things to do and know nothing about the Debian packaging system.
