There is no mipsel cross-compiler packaged for Debian, so building the firmware on arbitrary build machines is not possible. So let packagers build firmware when generating the source package. The built firmware is kept in the debian/ directory and then copied verbatim to <staging directory>/usr/share/xburst-tools at the appropriate time. The commands to prepare the firmware are in a script named debian/autogen.sh, which could be taught to do other things (such as generate a changelog) later.

This Debian package is developed in a Git repository (see the Vcs-Git field of debian/control). To build from a git checkout: debian/autogen.sh debuild This requires a mipsel-openwrt-linux- cross-toolchain in your $PATH. You can get one by building the development environment from Qi Hardware, for example. git://projects.qi-hardware.com/openwrt-xburst.git xburst See the Qi Hardware wiki for details. http://en.qi-hardware.com/wiki/Building_Software_Image To build a released version of this package, no special instructions apply. “dpkg-buildpackage” or “apt-get -b source xburst-tools” should work as usual. -- Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Sun, 04 Apr 2010 22:08:28 -0500
