I have been using freeradius since 0.3 installed from source and I wanted to give the debian package a try. I did not see a freeradius package in unstable nor testing. Is freeradius still changing too fast for debian?
I am building the debian package on a debian Woody stable system and am going to copy it over to a debian Sarge testing system. The freeradius I downloaded is: freeradius-snapshot-20030925 I found the instructions Paul H. wrote below along with his other post that has the patch to take iodbc out of the main freeradius package. I applied that patch with little trouble, and am now to the instructions in the email below. When I run the command: dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b -rfakeroot I get a list of missing build dependencies like I am supposed to. Here is the list I get: dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: libltdl3-dev, libpam0g-dev, postgresql-dev, libgdbm-dev | libgdbmg1-dev, libldap2-dev, libsasl2-dev, libiodbc2-dev, libkrb5-dev I do not plan to use kerberos, ldap,nor postgres and I'm not so sure that I need libgdmg1 either. I use mysql for everything except the dictionaries. My question is: how can I remove some of the build dependencies for packages that I do not intent to use? Is there a better way to do this now? Thanks!
