build/debian dir
Hi,
I went through the build/debian dir in my branch, cleaned it up and
made it do something usefull (see below).
I'm going to sleep now and when I wake up and haven't thought about
another problem with the current setup I will start looking for a
sponsor. Anyone objecting to the new build script and debian scripts
should speak now or forever rest. You probably have ~12h counting from
now. I will merge the scripts into the main branch once the
autobuilders had a go at it.

Priority: extra

Architecture: all
Section: devel
Depends: ...
Description: Debian Installer source
This package contains the neccessary source files and scripts used to
build the official Debian installer images for floppy, cdrom, network
and harddisk installs.
.
Note that you need access to a rsync debian mirror to download
neccessary udebs, debs and extra files at least once.
Package: debian-installer-buildlogs
Architecture: any
Description: Debian Installer images build logs
This package is responsible for triggering a fresh build of debian
installer images on the autobuilders.
.
The contents of this package is the logfile and asorted status files
needed by the debian installer developers to sort out bugs in the
build process and keep track of the amount of free space on each
medium.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
debian-installer-source is so people can "apt-get install
debian-installer-source" and rebuild Debian Installer CDs (when sarge
is released, till then it just along for the ride).
debian-installer-buildlogs will (try to) build all images allowed for
<arch> and put the build log and diskusage-* in
usr/share/doc/debian-installer-buildlogs. Its a udeb cause its only
intresting for us and noways cares about policy.
Currently the building of images fails with:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
pcmcia-udeb: Depends: pcmcia-modules but it is not installable
E: Broken packages
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Images are thrown away after building. I haven't heard back from
either the debian-cd maintainer nor the ftpmaster on how they want to
have the images wraped up and where to ship them.
Could be my local mirror but I'm too tired to check that out now.
MfG
Goswin
