Update debian rules i made, which one i v' to took?

[PICCORO Lenz McKAY]

I have updated and improved the current rules for Debian packaging,
the default sistem to build debian packagin in razorqt source git are
out of date and its not good.

with whom I must speak to promote myself as a packager, because,
inclusive I have also compiled too necessary dependencies for
installing in a squeeze/wheeze.. but i not have a 24/7 or chailroot/
debuild environment for buidl amd64 packages, only i386...

I do also, with helps of shaman and ernis, a live cd with raqzorqt
running.

for pluigins monitoring theres a libstatgrab-dev build depends missing
in control file

For compiling the libpolkit-qt-1-dev must be minimun 0.99 and
libpolkit-agent-1-dev minimun 0.99..

A build for wheeze will not produce same build as for squeeze due
differences between libpolkit-qt-1-dev api in wheeze and squeeze.

Wel i hope this help to the build process of debian packages..

[PICCORO Lenz McKAY]

Opps i forgett the fixeds i made, please see here:

debian fails.. especialy due

[Александр Соколов]

Yes, I don't have time to support the debian/* files constantly, I do it just before the release. I know it's not very good, but life is not perfect.

I'm not a guru in the packaging, your help would be cool. It would be good if you're prepared pushrequest. These pages can be useful to you.

http://help.github.com/fork-a-repo/

http://help.github.com/send-pull-requests/

Or if it's difficult for you, please send me your debian/* files.

1) debian/control: buid-depends: for pluigins monitoring theres a libstatgrab-dev build depends missing in control file

As I said, I haven't been updating this yet.

2) debian-control: razorqt-desktop: missing depends on oxygen-icon-theme due razorqt its unable to display xdg-compilant free desktop icons
We try to be a theme agnostic. Unfortunately, in spite of the XDG specification, themes have different sets of icons. If some of the icons are not displayed, we should add alternative names. Please tell what icons not displaed correctly and what alternative you may suggest.

2) razorqt-policykit-agent: For compiling the libpolkit-qt-1-dev must be minimun 0.99 and libpolkit-agent-1-dev minimun 0.99.. in squeeze i made a pbackports of in http://tegnus.no-ip.org:8080/repos/massenkoh/
3) A build for wheeze will not produce same build as for squeeze due differences between libpolkit-qt-1-dev api in wheeze and squeeze. so if a same build wan to made, libpolkit support will be missing in squeeze..
I have such situation with maverick and the new Ubuntu distos. I'm add simple scripting in debian/control file.

%ifnot lucid maverick squeeze

    libpolkit-agent-1-dev,

    libpolkit-qt-1-dev,

%endif
Or I don't unedstud you correctly?

4) update .install files.. now all are installed correctly in tmp directory, and no partialy hardcode paths must be live in *.install files..

This is good question. All the binaries, libraries, translations and so on, we installed used -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX option. 

But we have files that should be installed in a concretic place:

• Desktop files for GDM/KDM.
• The file menu (should be installed in /etc/xdg/menus)
• Maybe I forgot something else.

What to do with them? Add the argument -DCMAKE_ROOT_PREFIX? But the files set this variable will be unfunctional. If you have an idea, tell me.

5) promote me as a comantainer

I don't mind, what should I do?

6) i dont now, but i think depends on libqt must be 4.7, in any case, i made backports of qt4 libs and complete set of qt devel packages on http://190.78.141.134:8080/repos/massenkoh/
Why? Razor work well on 4.5.

Wel i hope this help to the build process of debian packages..

with whom I must speak to promote myself as a packager, because, inclusive I have also compiled too necessary dependencies for installing in a squeeze/wheeze.. but i not have a 24/7 or chailroot/debuild environment for buidl amd64 packages, only i386...

I currently bussy too je je.. but razorqt its great.. (i confes first
time loads too heavy.. but was a winbuntu compilation)

well i have a problem.. i not have 24/7 internet conection.. upss

of course.. i will send right now... note: the script startrazor must
up a different openbox profile for wirht registered alt-tab app
swichter in razor-appswicther, or a display error will appear (by
example in openbox), i reported that fixed in a while..

WOW, ummm its har to explain, but easy to show.. only oxygen theme
icon set its correctly compatible,
if i shoose a gnome based, a kde3 based, or a LXDE based (such as
venenux new set or default lxde set)
all icons on menu of razor are gone.. and some other..
so for now, i set a dependency on debian control file on oxygen kde4 theme..
currenly i research souce code and study cases for proposal.. and
helps to razorqt proyect..

Ok i understand, but the oficial way of debian compialtion not
understant that type of rules..
the packages that razorqt source produces are not made in oficial way.. .. but
dont worry.. the files that i send also work with that script too...

Currently my fisrt move was study the cmake based installer of razorqt..

i try to helps in that hardcode paths.. and send on comments over git
source page
theres no need to copi duplicate files for display managers, for that
i made a razor-session.links file that handle that..
there's no need to provide multiple session files for login in
XDM/GDM/KDM/LXDM... oinly for specific need display managers (like
kdm) only as links.. ok but, if u dessire to have multiple xsession
files, its better have scripts like startrazor wit flavors for
kwin/wm/openbox etc etc...
..
.. currently in my debian files that i send, only a one
razorqt.desktop session file are provided for all display managers,
and
only kde has multiple files of session flavors.. due fails in
squeeze/wheeze debian's XDM/SLIM/LXDM display managers, and
windowmanagers can be choose in desktop razor preferences.
I think this its the best, due razor session flavors are not
compatible on these display managers, so please, help me or proposal a
solution or tellme if that are enought solution..
Before send/tell me something please see my files.. and test in
virtual machine.
currently works on any debian environment...

> What to do with them? Add the argument -DCMAKE_ROOT_PREFIX? But the files

i tested eought the debian packagin updated files and no errors about thast...
i have some ideas, but let me test it first.. these files are right
installed, but cmake filelist are hardcoded.. i try to help over that

>> 5) promote me as a comantainer
> I don't mind, what should I do?

I want to be co-mantainer due this desktop interes to me for my
venenux sarisari OS as default desktop, that help me due work in same
to not do double duty, please add me to the credits as support on
debian files/packaging, will try always keep up to date before each
release.
I'm starting too collaborate with the project, trying to improbe cmake
files and some misc in code..
For u i can make periodicaly (minimum 8 months) a live cd for users,
that can be dowload and test razorqt .. both proyects
(venenux-sarisari and razorqt) can benefit of that..
theres a work in progress on tegnus.no-ip.org:8080/repos

i see in cmake files a requierst of minimun qt4 4.6.0.. but...
I hope that happens tonight, i will port a razorqt for lenny and etch
debian releases, due some low cost machines and some people still used
that versions of debian, but with new fresh ported packages of
software, performance with that combination of releases are very good
in old machine and low cost mini-laptops for chidrens and
scholar/students

this was related to a unreported bug by me for display manager like lxdm and slim, i try to explain.. 

* ... firts: due duplicate files, please see the razorqt-session.links file, this handles all this work,  the links files handle a link for razor.session in kdm files related,
* second: the razor  flavors of sesion desktop files work for gdm and kdm , but for lxdm, and slim do not work this flavored of razor session desktop files, only the startrazor so then, gdm and kdm works correclty but lxdm , slim go to errors.. i forgot to report this bug in razor git bug traking, due im little busy..
NOTE: i solve different for venenux (in razor.desktop session file i use directly startrazor, that works for lxdm and slim), but for current git version, i only install in xsession the working file for the lxdm, current gdm (stable and many debian derivated) and slim related, the work non argument handle session desktop file (razor.desktop) . the rest let for kdm, that i test work.

i tri explain this better in a bug report to razor git bug traiking later.. u can reporduce instaling a debian based but using lxdm or slim.. razor session are unable in lxdm, and slim must use a line edit in slim.conf (i reported that on debian, so dont worry about slim)

$ export DEBFULLNAME="PICCORO Lenz McKAY"

$ export DEBEMAIL="mckayg...@gmail.com"

Ok, you talk about how entries are placed in the file, I had made ​​a first entyy for you, then one of the changes I'm making and then the dynamic self-generated input, which is making by the dinamic packaging, to carry an history that is not performed, which does not appear still in packagin, i mean a pretty history change entries of packagin in changelog

NOTE: in debina/control i put u, an me, and packager too as mantainers.

IMHO packageer field should contain name of the real packager. User should to have direct way to communicate with him. So I used palaceholders in all files.

I don't know what to write in the changelog. It's bad idea to mix packages for Ubuntu and Debian, official packages and the build from git. 

I can write the script, it will download the previous changelog from the repository (if you specify the address).

this was related to a unreported bug by me for display manager like lxdm and slim, i try to explain..

* second: the razor  flavors of sesion desktop files work for gdm and kdm , but for lxdm, and slim do not work this flavored of razor session desktop files, only the startrazor so then, gdm and kdm works correclty but lxdm , slim go to errors.. i forgot to report this bug in razor git bug traking, due im little busy..
NOTE: i solve different for venenux (in razor.desktop session file i use directly startrazor, that works for lxdm and slim), but for current git version, i only install in xsession the working file for the lxdm, current gdm (stable and many debian derivated) and slim related, the work non argument handle session desktop file (razor.desktop) . the rest let for kdm, that i test work.

i tri explain this better in a bug report to razor git bug traiking later.. u can reporduce instaling a debian based but using lxdm or slim.. razor session are unable in lxdm, and slim must use a line edit in slim.conf (i reported that on debian, so dont worry about slim)

Mostly done, but

 if [ -z "${RELEASE}" ]; then
-    echo "missing release option"

+    echo "if that, can u specify parsing release option --release= to this script"
     help
     exit 2
 fi

I did not understand what the relevance of the executable file for this?

if that command are a mistake (i understant that the release command its with underscore...) make appropriate corrections you may think necessary, or not change anything. maybe a lsb_release for debian stable and lsb-release for debian derivates based on lsb 4.X

Now code looks like

 RELEASE=`awk -F"=" '/DISTRIB_CODENAME=/ {print($2)}' /etc/lsb?release`

So now it's work on Debian and Ubuntu.

"Excelente", i agreee with u

Why you install libraries in the dev package?

ol razor rules has no working devel package squeeze builds, those are no libraries in devel package, those files are the links of shared ship packages. this must be as is, please see any others in debian, by example, libnss and libnss-dev, the dev package have pkg-config files and .so link files ..
u must not change this for devel packages work correctly with debhelper system and dh_shlibs. i suggest seee other debian packages

OK, you are right. Done.
