Re: Packaging for gnss-sdr
Dear Iain,
I followed the instructions in [1], importing an existing git repository and pushing it to Alioth. (By the way, there is a typo in that page: it’s “git remote add …” instead of “git add remote …”). Now the ‘next’ branch produces a package with ‘debuild -us -uc’ with no errors nor warnings in lintian, and ‘git-buildpackage —git-builder=git-pbuilder —git-debian-branch=next’ works well. Tested in an amd64 architecture.
Please let me know if I did it right and how can I further test the package, and trying in other architectures.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Best regards,
Carles
