Prerequisites
- Setting up your PGP key for Launchpad: https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/ImportingYourPGPKey
Creating Release
Create a directory to be used for packaging. The rest of the commands assume you are in that directory.
mkdir packaging cd packaging
Clone the repository, switch to the release tag, and check out submodules:
git clone git://github.com/sirikata/sirikata.git sirikata-0.0.18 cd sirikata-0.0.18 git checkout v0.0.18 git submodule update --init --recursive
Now edit the changelog file to add a new section (you might do this step *before* the tag so it can be part of the "original" tgz). Make sure that the email address in the signature is identical to your Launchpad address:
dch --newversion 0.0.18-0ubuntu1
Now go back up a directory and create the "orig" tar file that debian requires (note _ instead of -, it matters):
tar -cvzf sirikata_0.0.18.orig.tar.gz sirikata-0.0.18
Go back into the directory and create the build:
cd sirikata-0.0.18 debuild -S
Go back up and run pbuilder to test if the build works:
cd .. sudo pbuilder --build sirikata_0.0.18-0ubuntu1.dsc
