Hi Kurt,
I tried to install fpm as shown in the indicated website but there
was an error message - see below.
Any suggestions on what to do would be helpful - thanks.
Regards,
Constantine.
sudo gem install fpm

Subject: [fricas-devel] Re: Debian package
Constanitne Frangos asked in a previous post:
(2) Is there a debian package for fricas that can be
conveniently installed with the synaptic package manager
in ubuntu based linux?
AFAIK there isn't one at the moment, right?
In case there is some interest I'd suggest using "fpm"
https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm/wiki
which is a really great tool to build various packages with ease.
The following command, for example, builds a .deb from the official "tar":
fpm -s tar -t deb -n fricas -v 1.3.1 fricas-1.3.1.amd64.tar.bz2
Check content with: dpkg -c fricas_1.3.1_amd64.deb
It is also possible to build it from an already installed distribution by
choosing "-s dir".
Of course one may configure a lot of other things and nicely wrap it up into a
script.

Dear Fricas developper,
I have built a Debian package with what is in the debian subdirectory of
src/contrib. From memory I encountered the following things:
. the efricas script is not installed with the executable bit set
. the script that builds the debian package try to remove an unexisting
file ('axiom')
. several wrong things when trying to install the emacs lisp files.
Problem of path I think
Thats all if memory does not deserve me.
Regards,
Greg
