Hmmm, it looks like package installation should be included in CI test run.
I am no expert at packaging, either. Debian or otherwise. (This is Zultron's area and I hope he will pop in.) What I discovered so far is that there was some discussion about functionality which would allow excluding files previously included by wildcard resolution in .install files: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=436240 , but I don't think it is currently available. (Debian developers are probably not big on set operations.) The only thing I can come with up now, is to create script which would cure the .install files at runtime and be placed here: https://github.com/machinekit/machinekit-hal/blob/98a93c227ac2fa4e81aca40887d08b717eb926ad/debian/rules#L149 . Trying to just list all files manually fails because not all platforms create all files. (On the same note: usr/share/linuxcnc/Makefile.*) (First thing I tried: https://github.com/cerna/machinekit-hal/actions/runs/75572559 ) I think this is serious bug and should be solved (somewhat) properly. Zultron, what so you think? BTW, didn't you want to create the build pipeline on Travis? Maybe I gave the wrong impression: The reason why I chose the Github Actions is that it can (at least I think it can) provide turn-key solution for everybody with just forking the repo on Github without the need for setting up tokens and whatnots. However, by the motto of "more stripes, more adidas" I fully support and plan to multiple CD/CI services - so when one goes under or stops the free plan, nothing really happens. BTW, building Docker images with this logic: https://github.com/cmcquinn/machinekit-hal/blob/master/.github/workflows/docker-containers.yaml won't work because in Github Actions workflows cannot wait on each other. So the one building Docker images will run on the same time as the one building the Machinekit application. So the one building the Machinekit application will pull the older images and very probably fail. It all has to be integrated into one workflow. Cern.
