These instructions and the files in packaging/Debian/ +are current as of Samba 3.0.0, and allow you to build Debian packages +for Debian unstable (so you need some development packages available +only in Debian unstable.) If you are using something newer than 3.0.0 +you might want to try to follow the instructions to see if patches +apply cleanly. If some patches don't apply cleanly please e-mail +samba@packages.debian.org since we might have fixed patches that we have +not yet integrated into upstream Samba. + +We try to maintain as much compatibility with previous releases +of Debian as possible, so it is possible that the files in +packaging/Debian/ can also be used to build Samba Debian packages for +other Debian releases. However, sometimes this is just not possible +because we need to use stuff that is only available on Debian unstable. + +Instructions +------------ + +If you want to build Samba packages for Debian and you just want to use +upstream sources, i.e. you don't want to wait for us to put official +packages out, or you want packages for a Debian version for which we +don't provide deb's, or you don't want to use official packages, or +you want to add --this-cool-switch to configure, or whatever, follow +these instructions: + +0) Make sure you have the following packages installed (in addition +to the normal Debian development packages -- dpkg-dev, libc6-dev, +devscripts, etc.): + + autoconf + debhelper + libpam0g-dev + libreadline4-dev + libcupsys2-dev + acl-dev, libacl1 + libkrb5-dev + libldap2-dev + python2.2-dev + + Notes regarding the packages required to build Samba Debian packages: + + * The libcupsys2-dev is not available in Debian Potato (Debian 2.2). + That's fine; the configure script won't detect CUPS support and the + resulting binaries won't support CUPS. + + * The list above is current as of samba-3.0.0rc2, but it can get + out of date. The best way to check what packages are required to + build the samba packages on Debian is to look for the Build-Depends: + field in the file debian/control. + +1) cd samba[-]. For example, "cd samba-3.0.0rc2". +2) cp -a packaging/Debian/debian/ debian + It's important that you copy instead of symlink because the build + tools in Potato have a problem that prevents the build to work with + a symlink. +3) dch -i (this is completely optional - only do it if you understand + Debian version numbers! Don't complain later if you can't upgrade + to official versions of the Samba packages for Debian.) + - Edit the changelog and make sure the version is right. For example, + for Samba 3.0.0beta3, the version number should something like + 3.0.0beta3-0.1. +4) Run 'debian/rules binary'. + - It is better that you prefix the above command with 'fakeroot'. + If you have problems you might try building as root. +5) That's it. Your new packages should be in ../. Install with dpkg. + +Please e-mail samba@packages.debian.org with comments, questions or +suggestions. Please talk to us and not to the Samba Team. They have +better things to do and know nothing about the Debian packaging system. + +Eloy A. Paris +Steve Langasek +
