h1. THIS IS WORK IN PROGRESS, unfinished

h1. Manually building a distribution package

This is a complete example showing how I created a .deb package of a custom osmo-msc version.

The aim was to distribute a certain patch of osmo-msc without modifying the official Osmocom package feeds.

h2. lxc container

For a clean build base, create a fresh debian 10 (buster) container.

on lxc host:

<pre>

lxc-create -t download -n neels-deb10

lxc-start -n neels-deb10

lxc-attach -n neels-deb10

</pre>

in neels-deb10 container:

<pre>

apt install openssh-server

useradd -m -s /bin/bash neels

cd /home/neels/

mkdir .ssh

cd .ssh/

cat > authorized_keys

# paste my ssh pubkey, hit ctrl-D

cd ..

chown -R neels: .ssh

passwd neels

apt-get install sudo

gpasswd -a neels sudo

apt-get update

apt-get install wget gnupg git tig

wget https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Debian_10/Release.key_

sha256sum Release.key | grep b5e2c1df9ff80bc73dd00a0c153ef308e7ec643ddb859e69789fcd4a9b1893d3

apt-key add Release.key

rm Release.key

cat > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/osmocom-nightly.list <<END

deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Debian_10/ ./

deb-src http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Debian_10/ ./

END

apt-get update

apt-get install git-buildpackage

apt-get build-depends osmo-msc

git clone git://git.osmocom.org/osmo-msc

cd osmo-msc

git checkout neels/mncc_codecs2

dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -tc
