=Debian打包入門=

==1 前言==

在Ubuntusci [1]的一部分努力之下，许多没有被Ubuntu软件仓库收录的软件包被添加到了仓库中。把其他类UNIX系统上的软件（或者其他Linux发行版上的软件）移植到Ubuntu Linux中是一件复杂的事情，需要的时间和努力会比预期更多。

不考虑Ubuntu软件仓库，任何已经出现在Debian软件仓库中至少4至5年的软件都将可能成为我们移植打包工作可能面临的困难。这还是个保守的假设。如果仅仅只是将源代码拷贝过来，简单地为Ubuntu（或者Debian）编译一下就可以，相信很多人早就做过了。那些特定的、一直以来没有人移植打包的软件主要是因为他们在Debian/Ubuntu上不能完美编译。

这份文档针对那些从未试过给Debian/Ubuntu制作软件包的读者。因为我们发现，即使软件编译和运行无错，打包的实际过程仍然可能会让人感到困惑。希望随着项目的推进，社区把更多的精力花费在软件包检查上，使我们制作的软件包质量过硬。

==2 工具==

Ubuntu/Debian的开发新手经常会对“source”这个词感到困惑。“Source-code”通常指某个程序（program），或者某个应用（application），或者软件包的源代码。当我们说“Sources”的时候，指的是用于构建软件包的文件。例如，软件包“Foo”的“source-code”（源代码）是一个或者一堆文本文件，通过GCC编译连接之后可以产生二进制可执行文件；而我们所说的“Foo”软件包的“sources”，指的是所有用于构建Foo.deb这个debian包的文件，其中包括源代码文件。

构建deb软件包的基本过程如下：

    * 下载软件的源码包；
    * 把源码包解压缩到某个目录；
    * 在源码目录内创建debian化目录 (./debian).
    * 修改./debian目录内的文件，如包维护者的详细信息、包描述，等等；
    * 在本机编译源代码；
    * 在本机生成.deb包；
    * 把经过我们修改后能成功编译生成deb包的sources上传到Launchpad PPA[1]。 

当软件成功地上传到Launchpad，并在Launchpad上成功编译生成deb包后，我们的工作就基本上完成了。我们的Launchpad PPA源地址可以分享给其他想使用我们的deb包的人。我们甚至可以申请把我们的deb包移入Ubuntu的官方主软件仓库中。

这过程中需要用到的工具至少有：

    * 浏览器，或者类似的软件——用于下载软件的源代码包；
    * 解压缩软件——用于解压下载回来的源代码包；
    * dh_make（dh-make包的一部分）——用于自动创建./debian目录和其他用于创建.deb包的骨架模板文件；
    * make（Gnu make）——构建过程中要用到的工具；
    * debchange/dch（devscripts包的一部分）——用于编辑包的版本号；
    * debuild（devscripts包的一部分）——运行构建过程，包括编译连接，以及生成deb包；
    * fakeroot（fakeroot包的一部分）——这个东西是必须的；
    * dput——上传经过签名的deb文件。

建议所有打包工作都在较新的Ubuntu系统下进行，这样可以大大方便和简化整个过程。

==3 Introducing Alien Packages==

An Alien package is one that is targetted for a diﬀerent system. For example a package targetted for a Red Hat system would be in the RPM package format. Porting these packages to Ubuntu is easier than attempting to package nonpackaged software, mainly because all of the package requirements have already been met, such as run-time dependencies, compile-time dependencies, etc.

The package alien (available in the repositories) can be used to automatically convert packages in selected other package formats to the .deb format. Unfortunately, this is only for binary packages; ideally packaging should only be done from source-code. The sources of any package should be source-code.

==4 編譯為類Unix系統定製的源碼包==

After downloading the source-code, un-archive all the sources into a directory with a suitable name, for example Foo-1.2.3[2] .

Changing our working directory to the directory we just created with the applications source-code and running dh_make would create the ﬁles needed to package the software. Some of the control ﬁles will be created as well as the rules ﬁle for compiling the software with a default rule.

Most unix packages, having been distributed with a conﬁgure script generated by autoconf, should build cleanly without any further work. However, a few applications which have no conﬁgure script would need modiﬁcations to work. Because the pitfalls inherent in porting and application from a diﬀerent platform can and do vary[3] , I shall only address the issue of getting a fully working application into Launchpad[4] .

==5 從源碼倉庫（Working Sources）創建Ubuntu軟件包==

I assume that the reader has downloaded the source-code to a an application and wishes to create a Debian package out of that application. For my example, I’ve written a script-based application[5] that was written as a standalone application, with an installer and an uninstaller that should run on most Linux distributions.

Downloading the Source Code. We can get the version of vob2mpeg that was used for this example from sourceforge. The following command will retrieve the exact version of the application used.

 $ svn co https://vob2mpeg.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/vob2mpeg/tags/vob2mpeg-0.0.1
 A    vob2mpeg-0.0.1/vob2mpeg.profile
 A    vob2mpeg-0.0.1/uninstall-vob2mpeg.sh

 A    vob2mpeg-0.0.1/README
 A    vob2mpeg-0.0.1/install-vob2mpeg.sh
 Checked out revision 7.

No unarchive is necessary in this instance because we retrieved upstream in a form that was not archived. Similarly, no renaming of the directory is needed as the application is already in an appropriately named directory, viz vob2mpeg-0.0.1. What we need to do, however, is create an archive of the original upstream sources so that any changes made to the applications sources can be recorded against the original unchanged upstream sources.

Creating the Debian Control Files. Happily, dh_make can create the archive of the original upstream sources using the --create-orig ﬂag. All the control ﬁles for creation of a package are also created by dh_make:

As we see, a debian directory has been created. This directory contains all of the information needed by the Debian build tools to build the package, including the build instructions to build the application itself. Since this is an interpreted application, no actual compilation of source code is necessary.

Modifying the Control Files. Before we go any further, a few modiﬁcations will need to be done on the ﬁles in debian. Firstly, the control ﬁle must be edited so that each ﬁeld reﬂects the correct information. The results of such an edit is below.

 $ cat debian/control

   A GUI wrapper to convert VOB files to MPEG files using ffmpeg. Allows
   user to change certain attributes of the movies in the conversion,
   such as scale, colour (hue, etc), etc. Can be also totally controlled
   from the command line enabling batch use.
 $

Finally, all the example ﬁles in the debian directory are not needed for this simple exercise - they are merely examples, so we remove them.

 $ rm debian/*.[Ee][Xx]

Modifying the Rules File. Before we go ahead and try to create the Debian package, we still need to modify the rules ﬁle. The debian/rules ﬁle is a Makeﬁle run by make that will build the application. Since we are not compiling anything, this ﬁle will be pared down to only what is needed to create a distribution of the software. This application (vob2mpeg) has an installation (and uninstallation) script that must be run. For example, vob2mpeg is installed on a Linux system by executing the installation script with an optional conﬁguration ﬁle that speciﬁes the location of the installation. Since we want all the ﬁles to install to ./debian/vob2mpeg, we create a conﬁguration ﬁle from the example given in the upstream sources.

 $ cp vob2mpeg-install.conf debian/
 $ cat debian/vob2mpeg-install.conf
 #
 # Installation settings for vob2mpeg installation script
 # Store variables in this file so that porting to different
 # packaging systems becomes trivial and not hellish
 #
 # Variables in this file are never over-ridden, uncomment
 # the lines below and replace with your own settings
 #

 export DEST_BIN=/tmp/test/usr/bin

 # The files to actually install, please do not change this
 export ETC_FILES="vob2mpeg.profile $CONF_FILE"
 export DOC_FILES="README CREDITS LICENCE VERSION CHANGELOG"
 export BIN_FILES="vob2mpeg install-vob2mpeg.sh uninstall-vob2mpeg.sh"
 #

 export BIN_FILES="vob2mpeg install-vob2mpeg.sh uninstall-vob2mpeg.sh"
 #
 $

So, we ensure that when we run the vob2mpeg installation script, it would install itself to ./debian/vob2mpeg. We can then create the .deb ﬁle from the ﬁles in that directory. Now we modify the rules ﬁle to tell it how to build the package ﬁles (the ﬁles that will be installed). Because we will only be modifying the build, install and the clean targets, I will <...snip...> out the rest of the ﬁle.

 $ cat debian/rules
 #!/usr/bin/make -f
 <...snipped...>
 build-stamp: configure-stamp
         dh_testdir

          # Add here commands to compile the package.
          $(MAKE)
          #docbook-to-man debian/vob2mpeg.sgml > vob2mpeg.1

          touch $@

 clean:
          dh_testdir
          dh_testroot
          rm -f build-stamp configure-stamp

          # Add here commands to clean up after the build process.
          -$(MAKE) clean

          dh_clean

 install: build
         dh_testdir
         dh_testroot
         dh_clean -k
         dh_installdirs

         # Add here commands to install the package into debian/vob2mpeg.
         $(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/vob2mpeg install
 <...snipped...>
 $ vi debian/rules
 $ cat debian/rules
 #!/usr/bin/make -f
 <...snipped...>
 build-stamp: configure-stamp
         dh_testdir

          # Add here commands to compile the package.

          #docbook-to-man debian/vob2mpeg.sgml > vob2mpeg.1

          touch $@

 clean:
          dh_testdir
          dh_testroot
          rm -f build-stamp configure-stamp

          # Add here commands to clean up after the build process.
          rm -rf ./debian/vob2mpeg

          dh_clean

 install: build
         dh_testdir
         dh_testroot
         dh_clean -k
         dh_installdirs

         # Add here commands to install the package into debian/vob2mpeg.
         ./install-vob2mpeg.sh ./debian/vob2mpeg-install.conf
 <...snipped...>
 $

The only lines that have been changed are those that execute the compilation, the installation of the ﬁles and the removal of all the ﬁles, so the targets build, install and clean have been modiﬁed so that compile does nothing (there is nothing to compile), the target install merely calls the installation program to install the ﬁles to the debian/vob2mpeg directory and the clean target only removes that same directory.

Note that we have neglected to provide the preinst and postinst scripts in the debian/ directory. These scripts, if present, are respectively run prior to installation of the package and after the removal of the package. This particular application has no need to run any commands before installation nor any commands after removal.

Package Creation. Now that we are done with all the changes we wish to make, we can issue the commands required to create the .deb ﬁle. Before we do so, however, we need to ensure that the correct Debian package version number is reﬂected in the newly created package. This should not be confused with the applications version number, which is the version number of the application. The package version number is the version of our package. For example, it is possible that for application Foo we decide to package version 1 of the applica- tion. In other words, the directory we use is Foo-1.0.0. After packaging Foo, we assign that package the version number 0.0.1.

Now let’s assume that there was an error in the packaging, for example, perhaps we compiled Foo using a ﬂag that caused it to break on lpia architectures. A user submits a report and we quickly ﬁx the problem. This results in the package having the new version of 0.0.2 while the application itself is still Foo-1.0.0.

Updating the Version Number. To automatically manage the version numbers of the package, we use a tool called dch. A plain invocation of dch without any command-line arguments results in an increment of the minor ver- sion number, while invoking it as dch -i results in the package recieving an increment to the major version number.

Upon running dch for the ﬁrst time, we are presented with an editor[6] that should display something similar to the following:

 vob2mpeg (0.0.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Initial release (Closes: #nnnn)   <nnnn is the bug number of your ITP>
   *

  -- Lelanthran Krishna Manickum <lmanickum@esprit>   Mon, 12 Jan 2009 23:39:19 +0200

We edit the above ﬁle so that unstable is replaced with the actual Debian distribution name (in this example I use Intrepid, as that is what was used in the production of this document and the package). Each comment should also follow the given convention, starting with an asterisk and indented to the previous line. The changed ﬁle looks like this:

 vob2mpeg (0.0.1-1) intrepid; urgency=low

   *   Initial release
   *   Edited rules and removed build instructions
   *   Edited rules and replaced command for installation
   *   Edited rules and replaced command for target ’clean’

  -- Lelanthran Krishna Manickum <lmanickum@esprit>   Mon, 12 Jan 2009 23:39:19 +0200

Now we can go ahead and create the actual .deb archive by running the debian/rules script, like this:

 $ fakeroot debian/rules binary-arch

 dh_testroot
 dh_clean -k
 dh_installdirs

This creates the debian/vob2mpeg directory tree, and uses that tree, along with the control ﬁles, to create the ../vob2mpeg_0.0.1-1_i386.deb ﬁle. At this point, we can stop if we only want to create packages for our own use. However, if we need to distribute our packages (such as through Launchpad), then we need to ensure that our package is signed by our Launchpad key.

==6 上傳並發佈軟件包==

Launchpad provides a very convenient way to redistribute our packages. We simply upload the upstream sources, upload the changes we made to the upstream sources and let Launchpad then build the packages for us. This ensures that, not only do we build our packages on our local machine, but we also ﬁnd out if the package builds on the various Launchpad virtual machines.

The very ﬁrst thing to do, if we haven’t already done so, is to create a Launchpad account for us to use. This account will give us a PPA, or Personal Package Archive. All the packages we upload will go into our PPA, and the URL for our PPA can be added to any sources.list ﬁle so that our package can be installed via the normal apt-get or synaptic methods by the user.

All the steps in creating an account on Launchpad is beyond the scope of this report, but full instructions and comprehensive help is available on Launchpad itself - https://launchpad.net/. Part of the creation of the Launchpad account requires the user to generate a cryptography key and use this key to digitally sign the code of conduct. This very same will will be used to generate a digitally signed package.

Signing. Once we have tested that our rules ﬁle works, we are ready to send the upstream sources and our changes to Launchpad. The program debuild generates a set of ﬁles suitable for Launchpad. We specify the key to use when digitally signing the package.

Uploading. Now that we have a set of ﬁles that are signed with our key, all thats left is to upload those ﬁles to Launchpad. A program called dput is used. In order to use it, we need a ~/.dput.cf that speciﬁes the Launchpad account to beused. My ~/.dput.cf ﬁle looks like this:

 $ cat ~/.dput.cf
 [my-ppa]
 fqdn = ppa.launchpad.net
 method = ftp
 incoming = ~lmanickum/ubuntu/

 allow_unsigned_uploads = 0

When using dput to upload ﬁles to my lmanickum account on Launchpad I will tell dput to use the proﬁle my-ppa, like this:

PPA. If a problem exists, then Launchpad will notify us via email. Once Launchpad has unarchived our upstream sources, applied our changes, run the build and install targets[7] and created the .deb ﬁle, then we should see the package listed in ourPPA, as shown in Figure 1. If there are problems, then they will also be listed there, and clicking on the relevant text will take you to the build log, which will help you identify the problem.
