Package software for APT.dyne.org

http://apt.dyne.org is our deb package repository serving binary builds for both Debian and Ubuntu systems.

It is operated using reprepro and its skeleton configuration is revisioned on git://code.dyne.org:dyne-apt.git (without the actual binary packages)

The dyne-apt repository also includes scripts to create the special dyne.deb installer which facilitates adding the source for users

It currently includes a package repository for Debian and Ubuntu users

Build a package

To build packages we use git-buildpackage and in our software repositories are present the branches debian0 and ubuntu0 (or higher numbers...) ready for its use.

switch to the debian0 (or ubuntu0) branch:

 git co debian0 

use dch to update the debian/changelog (for example to 1.2):

 dch -v 1.2 

Add to Debian

The Ubuntu repository is fed by PPA which are updated as feeds into our repo, meaning that to build Ubuntu packages you don't need to setup a pbuilder environment, rather than just prepare the package and push it to your PPA to be built, making sure your PPA is added to our dyne-apt.
