Hi all, Although I'm currently not directly working towards getting packages into Debian I do hope to eventually so hope this isn't OT.
I have been reading and playing with package building and looking for the 'best' way to do this. Obviously that is open to discussion but git-buildpackage seems like a good thing... However I am stuck and no amount of reading is helping... What I've done so far: - set up my repo, with upstream uploaded to the 'upstream' branch (using git-import-orig) - created /master' branch with merge of 'upstream' plus a 'debian' directory with required files What I'm struggling with: - creating a proper changelog Obviously I can create it manually but the automagic creation sounded like a much better plan. But the problem I have is that I can't get it to work. When I didn't have a changelog at all it complained: gbp dch --release gbp:error: Failed to read changelog: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: './debian/changelog' So I make a changelog (with dh_make) then it complains: gbp dch --release gbp:error: Version 0.5.0-1 not found (upstream was auto tagged 0.5.0 from source tarball so dh_make called the Debian version 0.5.0-1) What am I doing wrong? How can I do this better? Any ideas... Cheers, Jeremy Davis
