Bug#413070: RFP: truecrypt-installer -- Make *.deb packages out of Truecrypt sources



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : truecrypt-installer
  Version         : 20070302
  Upstream Author : Name <somebody@example.org>
* URL             : http://cante.net/"jaalto/tmp/debian/truecrypt
* License         : GPL
  Programming Lang: bourne-shell
  Description     : Make *.deb packages out of Truecrypt sources
  Depends         : debhelper (>= 5), devscripts, bzr (>= 0.11), wget

 The truecrypt Licence is not DFSG compliant and cannot therefore
 packaged directly. This is "wrapper" package which provides
 commands:
 
   truecrypt-download
   truecrypt-dpkg
 
 The first command downloads the canonical source. The second one
 assembles proper debian/ build structure and initiates the debuild(1)
 process un the source directory. The result is ready to be installed
 *.deb packages. The build & install process must be repeated for every
 kernel upgrade for the needed *.ko modules.
 
 Note that the linux-source-* and linux-kbuild-* packages need to be
 installed manually to match running kernel.
