I don't know a lot about it. I'm happy to accept patches, or even perhaps to write patches, to help Debian packagers integrate zfec and pycryptopp into the Debian ecosystem. When I need to build .deb's of pycryptopp or zfec myself, what I do is: 1. Install stdeb (optionally the branch that has my auto-dependency patch) from https://code.launchpad.net/stdeb/+branches 2. Run "python setup.py sdist_dsc" in the root of the pycryptopp or zfec source tree. 3. cd into the directory that was just created, which is named deb_dist, and run "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us". That's it. Step 3 produces a .deb file. You can, of course, edit the dsc files in between steps 2 and 3 in order to change the resulting .deb file. There are more detailed instructions here: http://stdeb.python-hosting.com I've been thinking that it would be cool if the buildbot would do these steps for me, automatically, whenever a release tag is committed. Unfortunately, buildbot currently fails to notice release tags: http://buildbot.net/trac/ticket/212 # buildbot doesn't respond to darcs tags Regards, Zooko _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list [email protected] http://allmydata.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
