- ===================================================
- Debian source package for Inform 6 standard library
- ===================================================
- Build source package from VCS
- =============================
- The source for the Debian packaging is managed in these conventional
- Git branches:
- * master: The current released code base.
- * packaging: Debian packaging development branch.
- * upstream: Upstream source code base, as imported from tarballs.
- * pristine-tar: Metadata for reproducibly generating upstream tarball.
- To build the source package from the Git VCS, use the Debian ‘gitpkg’
- tool to generate all the files::
- $ git checkout master
- $ gitpkg packaging upstream
- The ‘dpkg-source’ process will complain about the “deletion” of
- upstream source. This is because the upstream source is not present at
- all in the ‘packaging’ branch exported, but in the ‘upstream’ branch.
- The upstream source is safely exported earlier in its own tarball.
- The generated source package is the source control file
- ‘../deb-packages/inform6-library/inform6-library_$DEBIANVER.dsc’ and
- its associated files in that directory.
- Omitted components
- ==================
- Components that have been omitted from Debian because they lack a
- clear written grant, from the copyright holders, of free-software
- license terms in their work:
- * The convenience API for Glk:
- Files: infglk.h
- Copyright:
- © 2009–2016 Andrew Plotkin <erkyrath@eblong.com>
- License: all-rights-granted
- License-Grant:
- Written by Andrew Plotkin. This tool is in the public domain.
- Comment:
- This is not the source form of the work, and its corresponding
- source and build tools are not available under free-software
- terms for inclusion in Debian.
- .
- The only tool to build this (‘dispatch_dump’ from the ‘glk-dev’
- code base) itself requires the non-free ‘cheapglk’ library, so
- cannot be in Debian.
