Hello everyone.
Currently I'm developing a library and a command line tool with Autotools. I
have 3 directories (lib, include and src).
Then I decided to build a Debian package. Using dh_make I choosed "l" to
make a library package following the steps of the official documentation.
Then I fill as correctly as I can all fields on debian/control file for the
2 packages that are to be generated: libfoo and libfoo-dev. I want libfoo to
contain the lib*so.* files compiled in /lib directory and libfoo-dev to
contain all *.h files (/include) and *.a files (/lib)
When I run debuild this generates empty packages (none of my files, only
DEBIAN files). Then I discovered that copying the proper autotools
directories into debian/libfoo1/usr and debian/libfoo-dev/usr I could
include the files I needed.
I try to figure how must I modify the main Makefile to copy automatically
all files to debian/libfoo directories
Makefile
install:
cp -r lib $(DESTDIR)/
cp -r include $(DESTDIR)/
cp -r src/foo $(DESTDIR)/bin
debian/rules --->
install: build
$(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/libfoo1 install
$(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/libfoo1-dev install
But this copies ALL files and directories. Then I found 2 files:
libfoo1.install and libfoo-dev.install that are but patterns for files that
are to be installed (include) in each package. How can I use this files?
It's any automatic way to do this? Do I need modify the debian/rules or the
main Makefile or both?
Thanks in advance.
