Packaging best current practices workshop

Speaker: Lee Garrett

Track: MiniDebConf Hamburg

Type: Workshop

Room: Dock Europe Seminarraum

Time: May 03 (Sat): 18:45

Duration: 2:00

In this workshop we will show you in a hands-on approach how to package and maintain software for inclusion in Debian by today’s best current practices.

These topics we will cover:

• git-buildpackage conforming to DEP-14 layout
• sbuild
• lintian
• piuparts
• quilt
• salsa.debian.org
• Conveying your intent to package software

Please bring your laptop (and charger) to the workshop. If you have software you would like packaged, tell us at the start of the event!

If you do not have an account on https://salsa.debian.org yet, please apply for it before the workshop, as approving it takes a bit of time.

A basic understanding of Debian and the command line is recommended.

See you all there!

Lee & Matthias
