Bug#194409: ITP: debnest -- Nested Build System of Debian Source Package
Package: wnpp
Version: unavailable; reported 2003-05-23
Severity: wishlist

Description : Nested Build System of Debian Source Package
I'm writing a debian build system to create debian binary packages
such that their original upstream sources include debian source
packages. In build-time, this system unpacks their original debian
source packages by 'dpkg-source -x' and propagates policy-defined
targets of debian/rules to the unpacked build-tree.
Description: Nested Build System of Debian Source Package
Debnest provides a build system to create debian binary packages
such that original upstream sources include debian source packages,
i.e. .dsc and other files such as .orig.tar.gz and diff.gz, or .tar.gz.
.
This allows as follows:
* Manage your own debian/ such as debian/rules, debian/control,
debian/changelog and so on separately away from their original
packages.
* Create your own tuned packages with your own DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS,
CC or something like that from their original packages without
specifying environment variables.
* Create your own tuned packages with applying pathces to their
original sources as well as debian/* files separating
them completely away from their original source packages.
* Make it possible to redisribute debian binaries which restrict
source-code from being distributed in modified form _only_ by
the distribution of "patch files" with the source code for the
purpose of modifying the program at build time.
