1so, you want to install via apt or dpkg? 2 3i cannot yet help you make an APT repository, but I _may_ be able to 4help you most of the way. if you follow these directions, you should 5have a functioning debian package. having that package, you should be 6able to find some APT-HOWTOs laying around the internet and create a 7repository for yourself. 8 9the order in which things happen is still not completely clear to me, so 10while I _think_ these instructions make a functioning debian package, 11I could be very mistaken. 12 13addendum: Toni Mueller pointed out that making debian packages isn't 14hard at all. the debian toolchain does most of the work for you. I just 15happen to have not used the debian toolchain. 16 17# cp ldapdns.tgz ldapdns-2.00-8.tar.gz 18# tar xzf ldapdns-2.00-8.tar.gz 19# cd ldapdns-2.00-8 20# ./debian/rules binary 21# cd .. 22 23you should now have a: ldapdns-2.00_8-1_i386.deb (or whatever platform 24you're running on). 25 26you cannot yet cross-compile ldapdns. if you want to do this, figure out 27how, edit the debian/* and send me your changes. 28 29you cannot yet configure ldapdns. see the remainder of the configuration 30guide, OR hack this stuff into the debian/* tree. 31 32I want to thank checkinstall/installwatch for teaching me more about 33debian packages than the official debian maintainers faq :) 34
