This is essentially the standard debian/rules file with the dh command. Since this is the script package, this template debian/rules file has no build flag related contents.

Source: debhello
Section: unknown
Priority: optional
Maintainer: "Osamu Aoki" <osamu@debian.org>

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

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

Since this upstream source lacks the upstream Makefile, that functionality needs to be provided by the maintainer. This upstream source contains only a script file and data files and no C source files; the build process can be skipped but the install process needs to be implemented. For this case, this is achieved cleanly by adding the debian/install and debian/manpages files without complicating the debian/rules file.

Let’s make this Debian package better as the maintainer.

(No extra dependency packages required since this is a POSIX shell program.)

	Note
	If you wish to replace upstream provided PNG file data/hello.png with maintainer provided one debian/hello.png, editing debian/install isn’t enough. When you add debian/hello.png, you need to add a line “include-binaries” to debian/source/options since PNG is a binary file. See dpkg-source(1).

This is essentially the standard debian/rules file with the dh command.

The use of the “--with python3” option invokes dh_python3 to calculate Python dependencies, add maintainer scripts to byte compiled files, etc. See dh_python3(1).

The use of the “--buildsystem=pybuild” option invokes various build systems for requested Python versions in order to build modules and extensions. See pybuild(1).

This upstream is based on “Section 13.3, “Makefile (Shell, CLI)”” with enhanced GUI support.

Let’s assume its upstream tarball to be debhello-1.2.tar.gz.

Let’s get the source and make the Debian package.

Here, the hello has been re-written to use the zenity command to make this a GTK+ GUI program.

hello (v=1.2). 

 $ cat debhello-1.2/scripts/hello
#!/bin/sh -e
zenity --info --title "hello" --text "Hello from the shell!"

Here, the desktop file is updated to be Terminal=false as a GUI program.

hello.desktop (v=1.2). 

 $ cat debhello-1.2/data/hello.desktop

This is an enhanced upstream source example for “Chapter 5, Simple packaging”. This comes with the manpage, the desktop file, and the desktop icon. This also links to an external library libm to be a more practical example.

Let’s assume this upstream tarball to be debhello-1.4.tar.gz.

Diese Art der Quellen soll als Nichtsystemdatei wie folgt instaliert werden:

 $ tar -xzmf debhello-1.4.tar.gz
 $ cd debhello-1.4
 $ make
 $ make install

Debian packaging requires changing this “make install” process to install files into the target system image location instead of the normal location under /usr/local.

Let’s get the source and make the Debian package.

Let’s make this Debian package, which is practically the same as in “Section 5.7, “Schritt 3: Anpassung der Vorlagendateien””, better as the maintainer.

If the DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS environment variable is not exported in debian/rules, lintian warns “W: debhello: hardening-no-relro usr/bin/hello” for the linking of libm.

The debian/control file makes it exactly the same as the one in “Section 5.7, “Schritt 3: Anpassung der Vorlagendateien””, since the libm library is always available as a part of libc6 (Priority: required).

This is an enhanced upstream source example for “Section 13.7, “Makefile (Paket mit einem Programm)””. This also links to an external library, libm, and this source is configurable using arguments to the configure script, which generates the Makefile and src/config.h files.

The rest of the packaging activities are practically the same as the one in “Section 5.8, “Step 4: Building package with debuild””.

This source usually comes with the upstream auto-generated Makefile.in and configure files, too. This source can be packaged using these files as in “Section 13.8, “Makefile.in + configure (Paket mit einem Programm)”” with the help of the autotools-dev package.

The better alternative is to regenerate these files using the latest Autoconf and Automake packages if the upstream provided Makefile.am and configure.ac are compatible with the latest version. This is advantageous for porting to new CPU architectures, etc. This can be automated by using the “--with autoreconf” option for the dh command.

Let’s assume this upstream tarball to be debhello-1.6.tar.gz.

This type of source is meant to be installed as a non-system file, for example, as:

 $ tar -xzmf debhello-1.6.tar.gz
 $ cd debhello-1.6
 $ autoreconf -ivf # optional
 $ ./configure --with-math
 $ make
 $ make install

Let’s get the source and make the Debian package.

	Tip
	Without “foreign” strictness level specified in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE() as above, automake defaults to “gnu” strictness level requiring several files in the top-level directory. See “3.2 Strictness” in the automake document.

Let’s package this with the debmake command.

I: provide debhello_1.6.orig.tar.gz for non-native Debian package

This upstream CMakeList.txt needs to be patched to cope with the multiarch path.

debian/patches/* (Betreuerversion, v=2.1): 

 ... hack, hack, hack, ...
 $ cat debian/libsharedlib1.symbols
libsharedlib.so.1 libsharedlib1 #MINVER#

Since this upstream source creates the proper auto-generated Makefile, there is no need to create debian/install and debian/manpages files.

Es gibt eine Reihe von weiteren Vorlagendateien unter dem Verzeichnis debian/. Diese müssen auch aktualisiert werden.

The rest of the packaging activities are practically the same as the one in “Section 13.8, “Makefile.in + configure (Paket mit einem Programm)””.

Here are the generated dependency list of all binary packages.

Here is an example of updating the simple upstream C source debhello-2.0.tar.gz presented in “Section 13.11, “Autotools (Paket mit mehreren Programmen)”” for internationalization (i18n) and creating the updated upstream C source debhello-2.0.tar.gz.

In the real situation, the package should already be internationalized. So this example is educational for you to understand how this internationalization is implemented.

	Tip
	The routine maintainer activity for the i18n is simply to add translation po files reported to you via the Bug Tracking System (BTS) to the po/ directory and to update the language list in the po/LINGUAS file.

Let’s get the source and make the Debian package.

Download debhello-2.0.tar.gz (i18n).

Please use AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external]) in order to cause autoconfiguration
to look for an external libintl.

Please create po/Makevars from the template in po/Makevars.template.
You can then remove po/Makevars.template.

Please fill po/POTFILES.in as described in the documentation.

Please run 'aclocal' to regenerate the aclocal.m4 file.
You need aclocal from GNU automake 1.9 (or newer) to do this.
Then run 'autoconf' to regenerate the configure file.

You will also need config.guess and config.sub, which you can get from the CV...
of the 'config' project at http://savannah.gnu.org/. The commands to fetch th...
are
$ wget 'http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/conf...
$ wget 'http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/conf...

You might also want to copy the convenience header file gettext.h
from the /usr/share/gettext directory into your package.
It is a wrapper around <libintl.h> that implements the configure --disable-nl...
option.

Let’s update C sources for the i18n version by wrapping strings with _(…​).

src/hello.c (I18n):
