This is the same tar file that ones downloads from sourceforge when manually installing fis-gtm (as far as I understand...). e.g. here are the instructions we use in that case: http://osehra.org/wiki/installing-gtm So, my plan was: 1) Take advantage of the "package" target in the gtm Makefile, to select the binary files of interest to be included in an installation. 2) Take the resulting tar.gz file, expand it in a tmp directory, (debian/tmp). 3) Finally, cherry-pick the files from that tmp directory and put them in their final destination Two alternative plans are; A) To directly use the "./configure" file in the binary directory, which actually pick some defaults and move files to their final location. http://osehra.org/wiki/installing-gtm or B) Work from the "gtminstall" script that Bhaskar pointed out. In this case, we have to skip several portions of the script, because it really starts with downloading the tar files from sourceforge. This is clearly another chapter in which I have a lot to learn... :-) Luis ------------------------ > Kind regards > > Andreas. > > ----- Forwarded message from Luis Ibanez <[email protected]> > ----- > > Date: Sun, 12 Feb 2012 21:48:03 +0000 > From: Luis Ibanez <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Subject: r9659 - trunk/packages/fis-gtm/fis-gtm/trunk/debian > > Author: luisibanez-guest > Date: 2012-02-12 21:48:02 +0000 (Sun, 12 Feb 2012) > New Revision: 9659 > > Modified: > trunk/packages/fis-gtm/fis-gtm/trunk/debian/changelog > trunk/packages/fis-gtm/fis-gtm/trunk/debian/rules > Log: > Now using the debian/tmp directory as intermediate > step during the installation of the binaries. > > > ... > Modified: trunk/packages/fis-gtm/fis-gtm/trunk/debian/rules > =================================================================== > --- trunk/packages/fis-gtm/fis-gtm/trunk/debian/rules 2012-02-12 20:48:34 > UTC (rev 9658) > +++ trunk/packages/fis-gtm/fis-gtm/trunk/debian/rules 2012-02-12 21:48:02 > UTC (rev 9659) > @@ -25,8 +25,9 @@ > > override_dh_auto_install: > tcsh ./$(SRC_EXTRAS_DIR)/setupenv.sh package > - cp ./gtm_V54002B_linux_i586_pro.tar.gz $(CURDIR)/debian/$(PKG)/usr > - cd $(CURDIR)/debian/$(PKG)/usr > + mkdir $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp > + cp ./gtm_V54002B_linux_i586_pro.tar.gz $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp > + cd $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp > tar xzf ./gtm_V54002B_linux_i586_pro.tar.gz > > get-orig-source: > > > _______________________________________________ > debian-med-commit mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/debian-med-commit > > > ----- End forwarded message ----- > > -- > http://fam-tille.de > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
