I agree with Graeme. I was unpleasantly surprised to see that prevu was
abandoned without transition documentation.
A rough version of the info that should go in the documentation, should
someone ever create it:
Package signing is no longer required in ubuntu-dev-tools 0.142; see bug
#992739. If you are using an older version, you can add the following line to
your ~/.devscripts file and then backport the latest ubuntu-dev-tools:
DEBUILD_DPKG_BUILDPACKAGE_OPTS="-us -uc"
To create a build chroot, run:
pbuilder --create
(my .pbuilderrc is heavily customized; others may need to pass options to
pbuilder to get it to do what they want)
I use the following command to backport a package:
backportpackage -b -U -w . <package>
To make a local repo, run:
cd buildresult
dpkg-scanpackages . >Packages
To add the local repository to your apt sources:
echo "deb file:$(pwd) ./ #locally backported packages" |
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/localbackports.list
