Hi Charles,
could you tell me which command you used ?
I tried with pbuilder:
pbuilder build gbrowse_2.26-1.dsc
Hi Olivier,
I used sbuild…
I will not have time today, but I will also try with pbuilder later.
I used pbuilder the following way:
$ sudo pbuilder update
$ tar -xzf *.orig.tar.gz
$ cp -a<path_to_packaging>/debian GBrowse-2.26
$ cd GBrowse-2.26
$ pdebuild
This creates successfully a package where I have the following
issues:
1. Scripts in /bin should be in /usr/bin and should not contain the
*.pl extension (this was discussed several times on mailing lists -
feel free to ask for more detailed reasons)
Lintian:
W: gbrowse: script-with-language-extension bin/bed2gff3.pl
...
2. The only reason for an arch dependant package seems to be
/usr/lib/perl5/auto/Bio/Graphics/Browser2/CAlign/CAlign.so
It is not a good idea to have a package of large size (10MB) with
only one single small file which is arch dependant. So it is
advisable to split this up in a reasonable manner. I'd suggest
to move /usr/share/gbrowse2/databases into a separate package
gbrowse-data (arch=all). This makes a sensible split and should
be not to large in size for the arch=any part (remember: All
arch=any packages are ported to>10 architectures and mirrored
to an order of at least 1000 mirrors world wide. We should do
our share to nowaste these resources.
3. There is no need to provide a file
/usr/share/doc/gbrowse/INSTALL.gz
Hey, tha package *is* installed, right? If there are some things
to do left, just mention it in README.Debian
4. The init scripts do not support dependency based boot:
W: gbrowse: init.d-script-has-bad-start-runlevel /etc/init.d/gbrowse-slave 28
W: gbrowse: init-d-script-stops-in-s-runlevel /etc/init.d/gbrowse-slave
E: gbrowse: init.d-script-missing-dependency-on-remote_fs /etc/init.d/gbrowse-slave: required-start
E: gbrowse: init.d-script-missing-dependency-on-remote_fs /etc/init.d/gbrowse-slave: required-stop
5. Some other important lintian issues:
E: gbrowse: package-installs-packlist usr/lib/perl5/auto/GBrowse/.packlist
W: gbrowse: package-contains-upstream-install-documentation usr/share/doc/gbrowse/INSTALL.gz
W: gbrowse: embedded-javascript-library usr/share/gbrowse2/htdocs/js/prototype.js
W: gbrowse: embedded-javascript-library usr/share/gbrowse2/htdocs/js/scriptaculous.js
Thanks for your work on this package and keep on asking if you need
help in one of the issues mentioned above
Andreas.
