Hi Paul, 2011/5/11 Paul Elliott <[email protected]>: > Can anyone name an example of a well packaged data only package, (no build > needed), which is written in dh? I would like to look at an example.
Probably someone else will come up with better examples, but here are some possibilities: - For traditional dh, glest-data comes to mind, but you'd probably want to use a debian/install file instead of using "cp" in debian/rules. - For dh7, you could take a look at gnome-activity-journal, which is a Python application and not a data package, but again the main change would be using a debian/install file instead of having dh7 automatically call distutils to do the job. - (You can see an example of debian/install usage in topshelf, but the rules file there is CDBS.) In any case, there shouldn't be much to it, you just put in a minimal dh7 debian/rules file and then a debian/install file where you list all files/directories "<file> <destination directory>", one line each (for example, "mycoolapp.png usr/share/pixmaps"). I hope this helps. If you've got any particular problem, just ask.
