Chapter 5. Simple packaging

	Note
	Actual packaging activities are often performed manually without using debmake while referencing only existing similar packages and “Debian Policy Manual”.

The debmake command is the helper script for the Debian packaging. (“Chapter 14, debmake(1) 手册页”)

这些特性使得使用 debmake 进行 Debian 打包工作变得简单而现代化。

In retrospective, I created debmake to simplify this documentation. I consider debmake to be more-or-less a demonstration session generator for tutorial purpose.

The debmake command isn’t the only helper script to make a Debian package. If you are interested alternative packaging helper tools, please see:

 $ wget http://www.example.org/download/debhello-0.0.tar.gz
 ...
 $ tar -xzmf debhello-0.0.tar.gz
 $ tree

#include <stdio.h>
int
main()
{
        printf("Hello, world!\n");
        return 0;
}

这里，源码中的 Makefile 支持 “GNU 编码标准” 和 “FHS（文件系统层级规范）”。特别地：

Makefile. 

 $ cat debhello-0.0/Makefile
prefix = /usr/local

all: src/hello

src/hello: src/hello.c
        @echo "CFLAGS=$(CFLAGS)" | \
                fold -s -w 70 | \
                sed -e 's/^/# /'
        $(CC) $(CPPFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) $(LDCFLAGS) -o $@ $^

install: src/hello
        install -D src/hello \
                $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/bin/hello

clean:
        -rm -f src/hello

distclean: clean

uninstall:
        -rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/bin/hello

.PHONY: all install clean distclean uninstall

	Note
	对 $(CFLAGS) 的 echo 命令用于在接下来的例子中验证所设置的构建参数。

debmake 命令的输出十分详细，如下所示，它可以展示程序的具体操作内容。

debmake 命令基于命令行选项产生所有这些模板文件。如果没有指定具体选项，debmake 命令将为您自动选择合理的默认值：

• 源码包名称：debhello
• 上游版本：0.0
• 二进制软件包名称：debhello
• Debian 修订版本：1
• 软件包类型： bin（ELF 二进制可执行程序软件包）
• The -x option: -x1 (without maintainer script supports for simplicity)

	Note
	Here, the debmake command is invoked with the -x1 option to keep this tutorial simple. Use of default -x3 option is highly recommended.

我们来检查一下自动产生的模板文件。

这里的 debian/rules 文件是应当由软件包维护者提供的构建脚本。此时该文件是由 debmake 命令产生的模板文件。

debian/rules（模板文件）：. 

 $ cd /path/to/debhello-0.0
 $ cat debian/rules
#!/usr/bin/make -f
# You must remove unused comment lines for the released package.
#export DH_VERBOSE = 1
#export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS = hardening=+all
#export DEB_CFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND  = -Wall -pedantic
#export DEB_LDFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND = -Wl,-O1

%:
        dh $@

#override_dh_auto_install:
#       dh_auto_install -- prefix=/usr

#override_dh_install:
#       dh_install --list-missing -X.pyc -X.pyo

这便是使用 dh 命令时标准的 debian/rules 文件。（某些内容已被注释，可供后续修改使用。）

这里的 debian/control 文件提供了 Debian 软件包的主要元信息。此时该文件是由 debmake 命令产生的模板文件。

debian/control（模板文件）：. 

 $ cat debian/control
Source: debhello
Section: unknown
Priority: optional
Maintainer: "Osamu Aoki" <[email protected]>

Standards-Version: 4.6.2
Homepage: <insert the upstream URL, if relevant>
Rules-Requires-Root: no
#Vcs-Git: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/debhello.git
#Vcs-Browser: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/debhello

Package: debhello
Architecture: any
Multi-Arch: foreign
Depends: ${misc:Depends}, ${shlibs:Depends}
Description: auto-generated package by debmake
 This Debian binary package was auto-generated by the
 debmake(1) command provided by the debmake package.

	Warning
	If you leave “Section: unknown” in the template debian/control file unchanged, the lintian error may cause the build to fail.

Since this is the ELF binary executable package, the debmake command sets “Architecture: any” and “Multi-Arch: foreign”. Also, it sets required substvar parameters as “Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}”. These are explained in “Chapter 6, Basics for packaging”.

	Note
	Please note this debian/control file uses the RFC-822 style as documented in “5.2 Source package control files — debian/control” of the “Debian Policy Manual”. The use of the empty line and the leading space are significant.

这里的 debian/copyright 提供了 Debian 软件包版权数据的总结。此时该文件是由 debmake 命令产生的模板文件。

debian/copyright（模板文件）：. 

 $ cat debian/copyright
Format: https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/
Upstream-Name: debhello
Upstream-Contact: <preferred name and address to reach the upstream project>
Source: <url://example.com>
#
# Please double check copyright with the licensecheck(1) command.

License:   __NO_COPYRIGHT_NOR_LICENSE__

#----------------------------------------------------------------------------...
# Files marked as NO_LICENSE_TEXT_FOUND may be covered by the following
# license/copyright files.

 $ cd /path/to/debhello-0.0
 $ vim debian/rules
 ... hack, hack, hack, ...
 $ cat debian/rules
#!/usr/bin/make -f
export DH_VERBOSE = 1
export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS = hardening=+all
export DEB_CFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND  = -Wall -pedantic
export DEB_LDFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND = -Wl,--as-needed

%:
        dh $@

override_dh_auto_install:
        dh_auto_install -- prefix=/usr

Exporting DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTION as above sets the hardening options as described in the “FEATURE AREAS/ENVIRONMENT” in dpkg-buildflags(1). ^[9]

如上导出 DEB_CFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND 可以强制 C 编译器给出所有类型的警告内容。

如上导出 DEB_LDFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND 可以强制链接器只对真正需要的库进行链接。^[10]

The dh_auto_install command for the Makefile based build system essentially runs “$(MAKE) install DESTDIR=debian/debhello”. The creation of this override_dh_auto_install target changes its behavior to “$(MAKE) install DESTDIR=debian/debhello prefix=/usr”.

	Tip
	对于来自 debhelper 软件包的各个 dh_* 命令来说，它们在读取所使用的配置文件时通常把以 # 开头的行视为注释行。

您可以使用 debuild 或者等效的命令工具（参见 “Section 5.4, “什么是 debuild？””）在这个源码树内构建一个非原生 Debian 软件包。命令的输出通常十分详细，如下所示，它会对构建中执行的操作进行解释。

Building package with debuild.

Finished running lintian.

这里验证了 CFLAGS 已经得到了更新，添加了 -Wall 和 -pendatic 参数；这是我们先前在 DEB_CFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND 变量中所指定的。

根据 lintian 的报告，您应该如同后文中的例子那样（请见 “Chapter 13, 更多示例”）为软件包添加 man 手册页。我们这里暂且跳过这部分内容。

现在我们来看看成果如何。

	Caution
	在将软件包上传至 Debian 仓库之前，仍然有很多细节需要进行处理。

	Note
	如果跳过了对 debmake 命令自动生成的配置文件的手工调整步骤，所生成的二进制软件包可能缺少有用的软件包描述信息，某些政策的要求也无法满足。这个不正式的软件包对于 dpkg 命令来说可以正常处理，也许这样对您本地的部署来说已经足够好了。

The above example did not touch the upstream source to make the proper Debian package. An alternative approach as the maintainer is to modify files in the upstream source. For example, Makefile may be modified to set the $(prefix) value to /usr.

	Note
	The above “Section 5.7, “第三步：编辑模板文件”” using the debian/rules file is the better approach for packaging for this example. But let’s continue on with this alternative approaches as a leaning experience.

In the following, let’s consider 3 simple variants of this alternative approach to generate debian/patches/* files representing modifications to the upstream source in the Debian source format “3.0 (quilt)”. These substitute “Section 5.7, “第三步：编辑模板文件”” in the above step-by-step example:

Please note the debian/rules file used for these examples doesn’t have the override_dh_auto_install target as follows:

Here, Makefile in the upstream source tree doesn’t need to be restored to the original state for the packaging.

	Note
	When generating the Debian source package by dpkg-source via dpkg-buildpackage in the following step of “Section 5.8, “Step 4: Building package with debuild””, the dpkg-source command assumes that patches were applied to the upstream source, since the .pc/applied-patches exists.

The upstream source tree can be restored to the original state for the packaging.

The upstream source tree (restored): 

 $ dquilt pop -a
Removing patch debian/patches/000-prefix-usr.patch
Restoring Makefile

No patches applied
 $ head -1 Makefile
prefix = /usr/local
 $ tree -a .pc
.pc
├── .quilt_patches
├── .quilt_series
└── .version

1 directory, 3 files

Here, Makefile is restored and the .pc/applied-patches is missing.

Here, the patch file isn’t created in this step but the source files are setup to create debian/patches/* files in the following step of “Section 5.8, “Step 4: Building package with debuild””.

我们先来编辑上游源代码。

Let’s edit debian/source/local-patch-header:

debian/source/local-patch-header for auto-commit. 

 $ mv debian/source/local-patch-header.ex debian/source/local-patch-header
 $ vim debian/source/local-patch-header
 ... hack, hack, hack, ...
 $ cat debian/source/local-patch-header

Let’s remove debian/patches/* files and other unused template files.

Remove unused template files. 

 $ rm -f debian/clean debian/dirs debian/install debian/links
 $ rm -f debian/README.source debian/source/*.ex
 $ rm -rf debian/patches

There are no debian/patches/* files at the end of this step.

	Note
	When generating the Debian source package by dpkg-source via dpkg-buildpackage in the following step of “Section 5.8, “Step 4: Building package with debuild””, the dpkg-source command uses options specified in debian/source/local-options to auto-commit modification applied to the upstream source as patches/debian-changes.

Let’s inspect the Debian source package generated after the following “Section 5.8, “Step 4: Building package with debuild”” step and extracting files from debhello-0.0.debian.tar.xz.

Inspect debhello-0.0.debian.tar.xz after debuild. 

 $ tar --xz -xvf debhello_0.0-1.debian.tar.xz
