  • All emdebian changes should be separated from debian sources in patches
  • dpatch is recommended tool for use
  • Patches should have .emdebianN suffix, where N - emdebian revison number

Rules for target packages

  • Debian package sources should never be changed.
  • It should be always possible to build both debian and emdebian package
  • emdebian changes should be put into emdebian/ directory
  • All emdebian changes should be separated from debian sources in patches
  • dpatch is recommended tool for use
  • tools used for packaging should understand DEBIAN_DIR environment variable
  • Environment variable DEBIAN_DIR should be set to 'emdebian', so emdebian/ directory will be used as control directory instead of debian/
  • .embedN suffix should be added to debian revision of the package, where N - emdebian revison number
