Ok, uploaded a new version to mentors (1.1.2-6). These are the changes:
- During the build all generated files get deleted and recreated.
However, I don't delete the files in the override_dh_clean target, as
this breaks git-buildpackage. I do it in the override_dh_build target
instead.
- Updated debian/watch
- Completed debian/copyright with the info about CL/* and
external/pugixml/src/*.
The new package builds these binary packages:
libviennacl-dev - Scientific computing library written in C++ based on
OpenCL
libviennacl-doc - ViennaCL API and user documentation
The package appears to be lintian clean.
The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/v/viennacl
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/v/viennacl/viennacl_1.1.2-6.dsc
Thanks
Michael
