Debian release to support
sbuild: lenny x86-64: can create 32 & 64 bit arch specific packages, ~12 in total:
- Ubuntu LTS
- last two Ubuntu releases
>=etch
Make check
- use schroot to run "make check"
Problematic Packages
- ATLAS (atlas-sage-x.y or version bump)
- Python (python-sage-x.y or version bump)
- jmol - potential conflict with gcj in stable (testing an above fine)
- Maxima: copies mgnuplot script to libexec (Maxima is already in Debian)
Changelog
- needs to be kept in sync with SPKG.txt (automated mechanism)
- dch (Debian changelog)
Initially
- webserver for static only content
- set up apt-get repo on $SAGE.MATH
- To set up repo: reprpro + gpg key for signing
- domain: maybe "debian.sagemath.org" or "sagemath.org/debian"
Problem to be solved
- Install location: /usr/share/sage/ - "sage" script in bin does cd and
- then execute the appropriate sage scipt in /usr/share/sage/
location of tmp, i.e. TMP, /tmp or /var/tmp, not SAGE_ROOT/tmp
- SAGE_ROOT/ipython - why is it there. What is the content (config files?)
databases in $SAGE_ROOT/data -> /use/share/sage/data
- spkg directory: gone or moved to sage-dev.deb
- make distclean: remove "*.c", "*.so", "*.os" in /devel/sage/
- content of examples directory: What to do with the code?
LIB -> lib - Singular related, move to lib/Singular
- text files from $SAGE_ROOT: /usr/share/doc/sage
- create official Sage GPG key to sign packages
Package names
- Comply with Debian policy when possible
- libraries (for example NTL):
- ntl_5.4.1-1.dsc (the source source package), tarball with debian directory
- libntl0_5.4.1-1_i386.deb (initial NTL version, i.e. "0", contains shared library)
libntl-dev_5.4.1-1_i386.deb (headers & static libraries)
- binary (eclib)
- eclib_1.0_i386.deb (binaries)
- libec0_1.0_i386.deb (shared libraries)
libec-dev_1.0_i386.deb (headers & static libraries)
- Singular
- To be determined
Setting up the build system (In Detail)
- Start Debian installer
- Partitioning method: "Guided - use entire disk and set up LVM" - accept defaults and write LVM init to disk
- delete original main LVM volume, create new VG, say with 10GB
- set up accounts for root and users as usual
- update to lenny: edit /etc/apt/source and replace "etch" with "lenny"
- "aptitude update"
"aptitude dist-upgrade" (wait a while )
download Tim's script collection from the main Deb packaging page [http://www.sagemath.org:9001/days7/DebianPackagingSprint?action=AttachFile (tarballs here for now)], untar ...
- file "packages" contains list of packages needed for the build system
aptitude install cat packages installs the packages listed in packages
- file "approx.conf.tail": append file to approx.conf - make sure to set a fast mirror, i.e. not the MIT repo
- restart approx service via "/etc/init.d/approx restart"
- edit make-chroot and set $VG to volume group name or export VG
Now create change roots for various targets using make-chroot: Parameters 1 is SUITE (i.e. lenny), 2 is ARCH (i.e. i386)
If things go wrong remove lvm group created
download Tim's other script collection from the main Deb packaging page [http://www.sagemath.org:9001/days7/DebianPackagingSprint?action=AttachFile (tarballs for now)], untar into /usr/local/bin ...
- export DEBATHENA_APT=(path to SAGE apt repository)
To actually do builds
- get SAGE .spkg and unpack into DIR
- copy debian directory into $DIR/src
- build source package using debuild -S from inside package directory ($DIR/src)
- build binary packages using "da sbuildhack [resulting .dsc file]" from $DIR
- upload into SAGE repository using "daupload-release [resulting .changes file]" from $DIR
- use clean-schroots whenever you run out of disk space due to stale build chroots (often get leaked when you do ^C during a build)
