You'll need to install the git-buildpackage package.
There does seem to be a plethora of options around packaging and managing packages, but in our case we need to use the git-* packaging tools. Apparently not this is a separate system and isn't used at least for this package. (I assume you are familiar with the apt-get, quilt, and git tools so won't go into much explanation on these.)įirstly, I had assumed that the right tool to use was git-dpm (there are further notes on the Debian wiki). After hitting a brick wall with documentation, I made some notes here for others to either use or correct my misunderstandings. I decided to attempt to DTRT (do the right thing) and properly package my changes. Since last time I'd paid any attention to this stuff, it seems that Ubuntu (and presumably Debian) are using git for version control of at least some of their packaging of upstream sources.

Download Netatalk 2.2.0 packages for Ubuntuīuilding Ubuntu packages using git for the Debian source Since the final release of 2.2.0 was available upstream, I decided to build my own packages for it and have included the results here. Various forums suggested upgrading to 2.2.0~beta4 for which packages were available, but I didn't really feel like running a file server on beta software. This had apparently been fixed in the newest version of the netatalk package, 2.2.0, but as the NAS is running Ubuntu 11.04 Server there so wasn't a. We recently upgraded a Mac in our house to OS X Lion to discover, as did many others, that changes in AFP (the Apple File Protocol) meant that our home-built NAS could no longer be used as a target in Time Machine. I have left this page up as useful documentation of using git and Debian packaging together. Update: Newer version 2.2.1 packages for Ubuntu 11.04 available.
