ok...
I've had a look at the man pages for update-rc.d and dh_installinit,
and I *think* I've got the init.d script working (it appears in
debian/rcf/etc/init.d/firewall, anyway, and contains what I put into
the init.d file in the debian dir.)
this is my rules file now:
debian:~/rcf-5.0.1/rcf-5.0.1# less debian/rules
#!/usr/bin/make -f
# This is the debhelper compatability version to use.
export DH_COMPAT=2
build:
# nothing to do here
clean:
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_clean
install: build
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_clean -k
dh_installdirs
install rc.firewall debian/rcf/etc/
tar xf firewall-modules.tar -C debian/rcf/etc/
# Build architecture-independent files here.
binary-indep: build install
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_installdocs
dh_installinit --init-script=firewall
dh_installchangelogs
dh_installmanpages
dh_installinfo
dh_compress
dh_fixperms
dh_installdeb
dh_gencontrol
dh_md5sums
dh_builddeb
binary-arch:
binary: binary-indep binary-arch
.PHONY: build clean install binary-indep binary-arch binary
update-rc.d firewall defaults
---
the man page for update-rc.d didn't say WHERE to execute update-rc.d,
so I put it at the end.
however, no files are created in debian/rcf/etc/rc3.d , for instance.
my debian/dirs file looks like this:
debian:~/rcf-5.0.1/rcf-5.0.1# less debian/dirs
etc
etc/firewall-modules
etc/init.d
etc/rc0.d
etc/rc1.d
etc/rc2.d
etc/rc3.d
etc/rc3.d
etc/rc4.d
etc/rc5.d
etc/rc5.d
---
I tried experimenting so I wouldn't have to do etc/rc0.d, etc/rc1.d,
etc. but it didn't work! am I missing something?
thanks
