Package: apt-build Version: 0.12.22 Severity: wishlist -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
For example, I used apt-build to build and install mono and libmono0. However, mono's source package creates several binary packages, and if you run $(apt-build install mono), apt-build will only install the "mono" binary package, leaving the rest of the binaries to be installed from the non-apt-built Debian mirror, meaning they're unoptimized. In the case of a set of packages like mono creates, it seems to defeat the purpose of apt-build if you only install one of the binary packages that apt-build built. So, there needs to be an option, like --install-all-built-packages (maybe that's too long, but at least it's descriptive) that would install all the binary packages created from a build process. It should probably be on by default, but it should be possible to disable it in case you need to, for some reason. - -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-k7 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages apt-build depends on: ii apt 0.6.45 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii apt-utils 0.6.46 APT utility programs ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.4 Debian configuration management sy ii devscripts 2.9.21 Scripts to make the life of a Debi ii dpkg-dev 1.13.21 package building tools for Debian ii g++ 4:4.1.1-7 The GNU C++ compiler ii gcc 4:4.1.1-7 The GNU C compiler ii libappconfig-perl 1.56-2 Perl module for configuration file ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.20 Perl interface to libapt-pkg ii perl 5.8.8-6.1 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages apt-build recommends: ii build-essential 11.3 informational list of build-essent ii fakeroot 1.5.10 Gives a fake root environment - -- debconf information excluded -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFG4uD5+GdyTDsrJsRAg13AKDEvYmbAsRQ5qRfsWNjvm5hf28ScQCglZJk MwEb5HSbcnn5XnKiAQEBYv4= =NKuE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
