 Description   

Various issues have been identified with how we package for debian/ubuntu:

  1. Don't turn any changes in /debian into patches
    • part of the debian packaging is to turn any changesets beyond the last tag into patches and put them into debian/patches, to match the typical debian MO of packaging to package pristine releases plus patches
    • currently patches to debian/changelog are not put through this process. In fact, any changesets in /debian should be ignored similarly
  2. Exclude noise from the debian tarball
  3. make dist now creates a tarball without a /debian dir and a debdiff patch with /debian dir and all patches
    • since the tarball is already patches, the debdiff populates the /debian dir reflecting that it's patched
    • accordingly move these new artifacts to the debs subdir with the rest of the artifacts
  4. If the patches in the /debian dir require that autogen.sh be run, include it in the dist tarball
    • look for autogen.sh in the build subdir
  5. Add a debian/source/format file

Brian

Am I correct in understanding that these issues have been addressed by landing to the Oracle b1_8 branch tracked under bz 24416 and 21581?

Please advise

Peter

Peter,

This bug correlates to Lustre bz 24416, yes. Lustre bz 21581 corresponds to LU-47 however. Both have landed to b1_8 but both also need to land to master (2.1) still. They are in Gerrit and 21581 has two reviews plus a Hudson test passed (so is just waiting to land) and 24416 only has one review so far. I don't really know of anyone other than mjmac qualified to review debian packaging changes. I put a call out for volunteers but got none. I have in fact a few bugs needing that second debian packaging inspection.

I believe we fixed this with landing of the patches onto our master branch
