man tla-buildpackage (Commandes) - Build Debian packages from a tla/Arch archive

NAME

tla-buildpackage - Build Debian packages from a tla/Arch archive

SYNOPSIS

tla-buildpackage [ args for debuild ... ]

DESCRIPTION

The tla-buildpackage command is used to build Debian source and .deb packages from a checked-out version of a Debian source tree. Please refer to the tla-buildpackage manual for instructions on how to check out such a tree.

tla-buildpackage will, in order:

•
Verify that it is being executed from the proper location.
•
Check to see if a proper orig.tar.gz exists. If not, it will check out the proper upstream directory from the tla-buildpackage repository (if necessary) and build the orig.tar.gz. The orig.tar.gz will not contain Arch meta-data.
•
Call debuild(1) with arguments instructing it to ignore Arch meta-data in the diff.gz, passing along all arguments given to tla-buildpackage.

OPTIONS

All options passed to tla-buildpackage are sent directly to debuild(1).
