DEB packaging - krzd - 10-12-2009 12:21 AM
Hello,
when can I expect the packaged DEBs for Debian/Ubuntu? Is it a question of weeks or maybe years?
Thanks in advance

Will it be easy to change from the self-compiled version to the deb or will it be a long procedure?

Not long, not hard, not short, not easy. ;p
As you can see, Debian's package policy is very strick: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/
But when you have done few packages, you can sleep and make them at same time.

Hello everybody,
The ispCP debianization is not easy for the following reasons :
The Debian's package policy imposes several restrictions which are currently not at all followed by our project, including compliance with FHS.
- IspCP operates changes / replaces configuration files belonging to the existing Debian packages. Again, the Debian's package policy specifies several restrictions it is difficult to follow.
- The debianization of ispCP requires very good knowledge on the subject (very good knowledge of maintenance tools ..). The packages should be built is a multiple binary. It's more complicated to set up and it takes more time.
I intend to create Debian packages, but not before the installation scripts have been rewritten, which is planned for version 1.2.
Best Regards

Why do you want a DEB?
RE: DEB packaging - krzd - 10-21-2009 11:38 PM
Because it is much easier to update, just do an aptitude dist-upgrade. And also removing or moving to another server is much easier.
