It uses the +\fBcvs-buildpackage\fR system to locate the \fI.changes\fR file +generated in that run. It then runs \fBdebpkg \-i\fR on +every \fI.deb\fR archive listed in the \fI.changes\fR file to install +them, assuming that all of the \fI.deb\fR archives live in the same +directory as the \fI.changes\fR file. Note that you probably don't +want to run this program on a \fI.changes\fR file relating to a +different architecture after cross-compiling the package! +.PP +If a list of packages is given on the command line, then only those +debs with names in this list of packages will be installed. +.PP +Note that unlike \fBcvs-buildpackage\fR, the only way to specify the +source package name is with the \fB\-P\fR option; you cannot simply +have it as the last command-line parameter. +.PP +Since installing a package requires root privileges, \fBdebi\fR calls +\fBdebpkg\fR rather than \fBdpkg\fR directly. Thus \fBdebi\fR will +only be useful if it is either being run as root or \fBdebpkg\fR can +be run as root. See \fBdebpkg\fR(1) for more details. +.SH OPTIONS +All current \fBcvs-buildpackage\fR options are silently accepted; +however, only the ones listed below have any effect. For more details +on all of them, see the \fBcvs-buildpackage\fR(1) manpage. +.TP +\fB\-a\fIdebian-architecture\fR, \fB\-t\fIGNU-system-type\fR +See \fBdpkg-architecture\fR(1) for a description of these options. +They affect the search for the \fI.changes\fR file. They are provided +to mimic the behaviour of \fBdpkg-buildpackage\fR when determining the +name of the \fI.changes\fR file. +.TP +.BR \-M\fImodule +The name of the CVS module. +.TP +.BR \-P\fIpackage +The name of the package. +.TP +.B \-V\fIversion +The version number of the package. +.TP +.B \-T\fItag +The CVS tag to use for exporting sources. +.TP +.B \-R\fIroot\ directory +Root of the original sources archive. +.TP +.B \-W\fIwork directory +The full path name for the cvs-buildpackage working directory. +.TP +.B \-x\fIprefix +This option provides the CVS default module prefix. +.TP +\fB\-\-help\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR +Show help message and version information respectively. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR cvs-buildpackage (1), +.BR cvs-debc (1), +.BR cvs-debuild (1), +.BR debi (1) +.SH AUTHOR +\fBcvs-buildpackage\fR was written by Manoj Srivastava, and the +current version of \fBdebi\fR was written by Julian Gilbey +<jdg@debian.org>. They have been combined into this program by +Julian Gilbey. |
