Today I have spent a few hours trying to package a python library called lupy.
http://www.divmod.org/Lupy/ Firstly, I think there is Debian Python Policy. But I can't find it. Any clues? Is there a simple example somewhere? One that just dumps some .py files into site-package? I did apt-get source some packages. Most seem to compile some C. I don't need to do that. I looked closely at pyblosxom, but I am a little bit confused how under debian/ there is pyblosxom/ with everything again with the directory structure. Is that right? I thought the debian/ was a set of basic control files that assembles the sources below it. I ran dh_make and it seem to have created a whole host of unnecessary files... I tried dh_python: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/lupy-package/python-lupy-0.1.5.2$ dh_python Can't stat debian/python-lupy: No such file or directory at /usr/bin/dh_python line 124 Is it looking for some sort of structure like pyblosxom that I mentioned? In debian/rules of pyblosxom, there are these entries: include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/buildcore.mk include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/simple-patchsys.mk What is cdbs? Did I need it to? Other questions. How do I replace bilbo (my machine's name) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with a proper email extension? Do I edit the changelog with a special tool? Kind regards, -Kai Hendry
