- Automated Build System
Uploading
In order to upload packages you will need to have a GPG Key, this GPG Key must be provided to the ABS Admin so that you get added to the list of authorized package contributors. Plead send it by getting the key with gpg --armor --export your_email and pasting the output together with your email address and a short description at http://www.getdeb.net/contact.php . Packages uploads which are not signed or for which the signature author could not be verified will be silently ignored and deleted.
Package builders will upload packages into the automated building server using the “dput” command. The following configuration is required, edit your ~/.dput.cf , and add:
[DEFAULT] default_host_main = getdeb [getdeb] fqdn=build.getdeb.net login=anonymous incoming=incoming/hardy allow_unsigned_uploads=0 progress_indicator=1
To upload a package first you will need to build and sign a source package, from the source directory, run: debuild -S -sa
Then just upload with: dput package_version_source.changes
You will first get an email with the upload status and the package enter the building queue. Some (or several) minutes later you will get a status about the package building. If the packaged failed to build please try to fix it and re-upload it using "dput -f" . If you are unable to fix the build problem please report it on the launchpad bug tracker so that someone picks it from the building queue and helps with it.
