1. If you are repackaging for a new version Run dch -v with the version number currently in the makefile. Where you run the command depends on if you are changing hdactl or hda-platform.
# cd deb/ubuntu/karmic/hdactl
OR
# cd platform/hdactl
# rm -rf hdactl-hup
# rm -rf platform/hdactl/release
# make deb
NOTE: The removing of hdactl-hup is only needed if it is present.
You will find the .deb file generated under platform/hdactl/release
directory.
NOTE: For ease of use use gdebi to install.
3. To build hda-platform package, change to 'platform/platform' directory and
** Edit the file /etc/apache2/envvars to set the apache user to 'apache' as opposed to 'www-data'
=Post install gotchas (asp's notes)=
After building the deb packages above and installing using the Ubuntu pkg installer, was able to then startup hdactl (using '/etc/init.d/hdactl start') and then http;//hda worked.
# Had to ## removed past post install the pluginfactory gem by running 'gem install -no-rdoc -no-ri pluginfactory'# Noticed notes as many changes have happened that Apache runs as 'www-data' on Ubuntu instead of 'apache' user like on Fedora. Amahi-app-installer.log indicated 'apache' user was not found after attempting to install an app on Application tab of platformmay have deprecated some issues.
