This was my main concern during the discussions about the build
tools. Please don't make the usage of svn-buildpackage mandatory for the
pkg-games team.
Nothing in the proposed build process mandates the usage of
svn-buildpackage, but using it is easier.
Example: the short proposed sequence can be converted.
This:
$ svn co svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-games/trunk/game
$ cd game
$ svn-buildpackage
becomes:
$ wget -c `svn pg svn-bp:origUrl svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-games/trunk/game`
$ tar xvfz `basename $(svn pg svn-bp:origUrl $
svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-games/trunk/game)`
$ cd game-*
$ svn export --force svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-games/trunk/game .
$ dpkg-buildpackage
Note that nothing used here is specific to svn-buildpackage, and the
"svn export --force" stuff is mandatory from the fact that we are
storing just the debian specific part of the package in subversion (as
we have agreed as a result of the tools discution).
In spite of all that, using vn-buildpackage is easier.
Note, the initial tree buidling can be done via svn-buildpackage, and
everything can be continued from that place onwards:
$ svn co svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-games/trunk/game
$ wget -c `svn pg svn-bp:origUrl game`
$ cd game
$ svn-buildpackage --svn-builder "echo done" --svn-override origDir=..
$ cd ../build-area/game-*
$ dpkg-buildpackage
