Oops on that patch. Don't apply it unless you also use "git svn". Sorry. You can apply it then "rm configure configure.in", and then svn co configure configure.in and it will work, I think.

Use svn to check out a copy of it:

mkdir ~/src

cd ~/src

svn co svn://svn.savannah.gnu.org/texmacs/trunk texmacs-svn-trunk

Apply the attached patch (optional) which I have not submitted to the project yet but is obviously freely available the same as TeXmacs so if anyone wants to use it or look it over and incorporate it that's fine.

cd ~/src/texmacs-svn-trunk

patch -p1 < /path/to/karlhegs-deb-packaging-patch.diff

Set up the build environment:

cd ~/src/

vi ./setup_build_env.sh

8<------------------------------------------------------------------------->8

... and adapt that to your environment. I used to use distcc and had a server running on the desktop machine this laptop was on the same network with. The laptop has an i7 hyperthreading quad-core processor, so I run the build with 8 threads. The desktop had 4 cores, so I added 4 more when using distcc. Those lines are commented off now since I'm on the road right now.

Load that environment with:

. ./setup_build_env.sh

Link the debian directory to here so you can use it:

ln -s packages/debian .

Check to be sure you have everything installed that it will require:

dpkg-checkbuilddeps

If it prints anything, use sudo apt-get install to install the missing dependencies. Don't forget to do "sudo -k" after you are done to lock it again. Build with "fakeroot", not with "sudo":

fakeroot debian/rules clean binary

If all goes well, you'll have a deb package in the ~/src/texmacs-svn-trunk directory. If you have pkg-create-dbgsym installed, you'll also have a matching dbgsym package. Use: sudo dpkg -i packagefilename.deb  to install it.

Hi Karl,

could you remind me, please, all the different steps to build a debian package for texmacs ?

Thx,
