.. _packaging-debian:
Packaging Debian
================
(Tested on Ubuntu 14.04, 16.04, 17.10, 18.04, Debian jessie, stretch and
buster.)
1. Install the Debian packaging tools:
.. code-block:: shell
sudo apt install fakeroot debhelper devscripts
2. Checkout FRR under an **unprivileged** user account:
.. code-block:: shell
git clone https://github.com/frrouting/frr.git frr
cd frr
If you wish to build a package for a branch other than master:
.. code-block:: shell
git checkout <branch>
3. Install build dependencies using the `mk-build-deps` tool from the
`devscripts` package:
.. code-block:: shell
sudo mk-build-deps --install --remove debian/control
Alternatively, you can manually install build dependencies for your
platform as outlined in :ref:`building`.
4. Install `git-buildpackage` package:
.. code-block:: shell
sudo apt-get install git-buildpackage
5. (optional) Append a distribution identifier if needed (see below under
:ref:`multi-dist`.)
6. Build Debian Binary and/or Source Packages:
.. code-block:: shell
gbp buildpackage --git-builder=dpkg-buildpackage --git-debian-branch="$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)" $options
Where `$options` may contain any or all of the following items:
* build profiles specified with ``-P``, e.g.
``-Ppkg.frr.nortrlib,pkg.frr.rtrlib``.
Multiple values are separated by commas and there must not be a space
after the ``-P``.
The following build profiles are currently available:
+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------------------------+
| Profile | Negation | Effect |
+================+===================+=========================================+
| pkg.frr.rtrlib | pkg.frr.nortrlib | builds frr-rpki-rtrlib package (or not) |
+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------------------------+
| pkg.frr.lua | pkg.frr.nolua | builds lua scripting extension |
+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------------------------+
| pkg.frr.pim6d | pkg.frr.nopim6d | builds pim6d (work in progress) |
+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------------------------+
* the ``-uc -us`` options to disable signing the packages with your GPG key
(git builds of the `master` or `stable/X.X` branches won't be signed by
default since their target release is set to ``UNRELEASED``.)
* the ``--build=type`` accepts following options (see ``dpkg-buildpackage`` manual page):
* ``source`` builds the source package
* ``any`` builds the architecture specific binary packages
* ``all`` build the architecture independent binary packages
* ``binary`` build the architecture specific and independent binary packages (alias for ``any,all``)
* ``full`` builds everything (alias for ``source,any,all``)
Alternatively, you might want to replace ``dpkg-buildpackage`` with
``debuild`` wrapper that also runs ``lintian`` and ``debsign`` on the final
packages.
7. Done!
If all worked correctly, then you should end up with the Debian packages in
the parent directory of where `debuild` ran. If distributed, please make sure
you distribute it together with the sources (``frr_*.orig.tar.xz``,
``frr_*.debian.tar.xz`` and ``frr_*.dsc``)
.. note::
A package created from `master` or `stable/X.X` is slightly different from
a package created from the `debian` branch. The changelog for the former
is autogenerated and sets the Debian revision to ``-0``, which causes an
intentional lintian warning. The `debian` branch on the other hand has
a manually maintained changelog that contains proper Debian release
versioning.
.. _multi-dist:
Multi-Distribution builds
=========================
You can optionally append a distribution identifier in case you want to
make multiple versions of the package available in the same repository.
.. code-block:: shell
dch -l '~deb8u' 'build for Debian 8 (jessie)'
dch -l '~deb9u' 'build for Debian 9 (stretch)'
dch -l '~ubuntu14.04.' 'build for Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty)'
dch -l '~ubuntu16.04.' 'build for Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial)'
dch -l '~ubuntu18.04.' 'build for Ubuntu 18.04 (bionic)'
Between building packages for specific distributions, the only difference
in the package itself lies in the automatically generated shared library
dependencies, e.g. libjson-c2 or libjson-c3. This means that the
architecture independent packages should **not** have a suffix appended.
Also, the current Debian testing/unstable releases should not have any suffix
appended.
For example, at the end of 2018 (i.e. ``buster``/Debian 10 is the current
"testing" release), the following is a complete list of `.deb` files for
Debian 8, 9 and 10 packages for FRR 6.0.1-1 with RPKI support::
frr_6.0.1-1_amd64.deb
frr_6.0.1-1~deb8u1_amd64.deb
frr_6.0.1-1~deb9u1_amd64.deb
frr-dbg_6.0.1-1_amd64.deb
frr-dbg_6.0.1-1~deb8u1_amd64.deb
frr-dbg_6.0.1-1~deb9u1_amd64.deb
frr-rpki-rtrlib_6.0.1-1_amd64.deb
frr-rpki-rtrlib_6.0.1-1~deb8u1_amd64.deb
frr-rpki-rtrlib_6.0.1-1~deb9u1_amd64.deb
frr-doc_6.0.1-1_all.deb
frr-pythontools_6.0.1-1_all.deb
Note that there are no extra versions of the `frr-doc` and `frr-pythontools`
packages (because they are for architecture ``all``, not ``amd64``), and the
version for Debian 10 does **not** have a ``~deb10u1`` suffix.
.. warning::
Do not use the ``-`` character in the version suffix. The last ``-`` in
the version number is the separator between upstream version and Debian
version. ``6.0.1-1~foobar-2`` means upstream version ``6.0.1-1~foobar``,
Debian version ``2``. This is not what you want.
The only allowed characters in the Debian version are ``0-9 A-Z a-z + . ~``
.. note::
The separating character for the suffix **must** be the tilde (``~``)
because the tilde is ordered in version-comparison before the empty
string. That means the order of the above packages is the following:
``6.0.1-1`` newer than ``6.0.1-1~deb9u1`` newer than ``6.0.1-1~deb8u1``
If you use another character (e.g. ``+``), the untagged version will be
regarded as the "oldest"!
