rbm deb <project> [options]

Build a debian package.

This is equivalent to running rbm build --step deb <project>.

The following configuration options are related to Debian packages :

debian_revision

The package revision used in debian packages. By default, when the option pkg_rel is defined, this is what is used. Otherwise a revision containing the number of commits since the last git tag, and the hash of the commit is used.

deb_src

This is the script that is used to create the debian source package. By default it will use the debian files listed in the option debian_files and create the source package with dpkg-source.

deb

This is the script that is used to create the debian packages. By default it will use the debian files listed in the option debian_files and build the package using debuild or pdebuild depending on whether the use_pbuilder option is set. The packages will be signed using the key defined in the option debsign_keyid.

debian_files

This is an array containing the files to create in the debian directory. Each item in the array is an hash, with the following two keys : name is the file name in the debian directory of the file to create, and content is the content of the file. The filename and content are processed as template, so for instance if you want to store the content of a file in a separate file, you can use the INCLUDE directive.

use_pbuilder

If set to a true value, pbuilder will be used to build the debian packages.

debsign_keyid

This is the gpg key that will be used to sign the debian packages. Set to 0 if you don’t want to sign the packages.

See rbm_config(7) for all other options.

The command line options related to Debian packages are :

--use-pbuilder, --no-use-pbuilder
