Leo: Created page with " == Required Files and Directories == At the minimum, you should have: ./my-package/ ./my-package/DEBIAN ./my-pa..."

Created page with " == Required Files and Directories == At the minimum, you should have: <syntaxhighlight lang="text" line start="1" enclose="div"> ./my-package/ ./my-package/DEBIAN ./my-pa..."

New page

== Required Files and Directories ==
At the minimum, you should have:
<syntaxhighlight lang="text" line start="1" enclose="div">
./my-package/
./my-package/DEBIAN
./my-package/DEBIAN/prerm
./my-package/DEBIAN/postinst
./my-package/DEBIAN/control
./my-package/usr/some/other/file
</syntaxhighlight>

What's critical is the control file. The prerm/postinst scripts are optional. The rest are the files that are part of your package.

=== The control File ===

<syntaxhighlight lang="text" line start="1" enclose="div">
Package: cpsc-gpxe
Section: cpsc
Priority: extra
Maintainer: Leo Leung <lleung@ucalgary.ca>
Version: 0.1.1
Homepage: http://pages.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/~leo/support
Architecture: all
Depends: bash, coreutils, grub2-common, cpsc-initd
Description: Enables the gPXE grub option
</syntaxhighlight>

== Building the .dep Package ==

Once you have all your files

<syntaxhighlight lang="bash" line start="1" enclose="div">
#!/bin/sh
BaseDirectory="/mnt/package_build/debbuild"
OutputDirectory="/mnt/repository/extras"

if [ -z $1 ] ; then
echo "Usage: sh build <package directory>"
exit
fi

cd $BaseDirectory
dpkg-deb --build $1
dpkg-sig --sign builder $1.deb

cd $OutputDirectory
sh add_deb.sh $BaseDirectory/$1.deb

rm $BaseDirectory/$1.deb
</syntaxhighlight>
