Packaging

= Libv's ultra simplistic reprepro workflow =

This is my ultra-simplistic, non-scalable reprepro workflow, which is currently responsible for |our ubuntu repo. This is not a workflow proposal, it is documenting what is behind the current respository, before we start throwing stuff around.

Alejandro kindly linked /srv/http/sunxi/linux-sunxi.org/packages/ubuntu to ~/ubuntu

I have a directory called reprepro, and a .bash_profile which reads: export REPREPRO_BASE_DIR=/home/libv/reprepro So that i avoid accidentally recreating a new database and config somewhere else, leaving the whole thing in a disjoined state.

In ~/reprepro/conf/options, it reads: outdir /home/libv/ubuntu keepunreferencedfiles I like to keep "older" packages around, so that people with slightly older package lists, or people who wish to compare different versions of the same code, can all be happy campers.

In ~/reprepro/conf/distributions, it reads: Origin: packages.linux-sunxi.org Label: Linux-sunxi ubuntu precise repository Codename: precise Architectures: armhf source Components: main Description: Linux-sunxi ubuntu Precise Pangolin package repo

Origin: packages.linux-sunxi.org Label: Linux-sunxi ubuntu quantal repository Codename: quantal Architectures: armhf source Components: main Description: Linux-sunxi ubuntu Quantal Quetzal package repo

Origin: packages.linux-sunxi.org Label: Linux-sunxi ubuntu raring repository Codename: raring Architectures: armhf source Components: main Description: Linux-sunxi ubuntu Raring Ringtail package repo

Origin: packages.linux-sunxi.org Label: Linux-sunxi ubuntu saucy repository Codename: saucy Architectures: armhf source Components: main Description: Linux-sunxi ubuntu Saucy Salamander package repo Note that SignWith directives are lacking, i am currently not signing packages.

I then manually scp packages into ~/incoming/ and manually run, for instance: reprepro -V includedeb saucy *.deb reprepro -V includedsc saucy *.dsc while clearing out ~/incoming manually afterwards.
