-Building DEB packages
-=====================
-
-REQUIREMENTS:
- You will need a working Internet connection to execute the build, because
- the build procedure for the included "dpdk" project attempts to contact the
- Internet host "dpdk.org".
-
-There are three main parts to the process:
- a) Stage the source tree so that dpkg-source will recognize its organization
- and create a valid DSC source package for you;
- b) Ensure that the tools required for building DEB packages are installed;
- and
- c) Launch the build.
-
-1) Create, or have on hand, a local clone of the git repository, with no
-untracked files or local modifications pending, up-to-date with the branch or
-commit reference from which you wish to construct the source release.
-
-The branch and repository origins will differ based on local conditions.
-
-Example:
-$ git clone -b master ssh://git@example.com:7999/~username/open-vpp
-
-("-b master" can be omitted since master is the default branch)
-
-2) Rename the checkout with a version number embedded in its name as is
-conventional for code releases. Again, your version number may vary.
-
-Example:
-$ mv open-vpp open-vpp-0.0.0
-
-3) Ensure that the dpkg-buildpackage program is installed.
-
-E.g.,
-
-# apt-get install dpkg-dev
-
-4) From the PARENT directory of the debian/ directory, run:
-
-$ cd open-vpp-0.0.0
-$ dpkg-buildpackage -I .git -us -uc
-
-(The -us and -uc flags omit GPG signatures from the .dsc and .changes files,
-respectively. You can add them later, or if you are preparing a signed release
-and have the signing key on hand, leave off the flags.)
-
-5) Get rid of the source directory; you now either have a source package with
-which you can re-create it at any time, or there were problems with the build,
-and you should go back to your git checkout to fix them.
-
-$ rm -r open-vpp-0.0.0
-
-END
