debian packaging

[dlech]

This is just FYI. I have created debian packaging for PixyMon in https://github.com/ev3dev/pixy.

If anyone wants to install from a package on Debian/Ubuntu instead of compiling from source...

sudo apt-add-repository "deb http://archive.ev3dev.org/ubuntu xenial main"
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 2B210565
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pixymon

You will get a menu entry to launch the program and it automatically installs the required udev rules.

Hey David, I'm not able to give this a try because I'm on vacation and I didn't bring a computer, but this looks awesome! Thanks man!

I tried running this to install on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and got this error.

The following packages have unmet dependencies: pixymon : Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 5.2) but 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.3 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Any ideas?

I have just published a version for Debian jessie that might work better for trusty.

Try this instead:

sudo apt-add-repository "deb http://archive.ev3dev.org/debian jessie main"

I have also published additional architectures (armel, armhf) for Debian so that you can use on embedded devices, etc.

I have also added packages for the static library (libpixyusb-dev) and the python binding (python3-libpixyusb). I show them all below, but you only need to install the one you want to use.

sudo apt-add-repository "deb http://archive.ev3dev.org/debian jessie main"
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 2B210565
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pixymon
sudo apt-get install libpixyusb-dev
sudo apt-get install python3-libpixyusb

There is also a version compiled for Rapsberry Pi (Rapsbian). Use this repository instead:

sudo apt-add-repository "deb http://archive.ev3dev.org/raspbian jessie main"

I gave this a try and got this message when I tried to update.

You have to replace ubuntu with debian (I made a typo in my previous comment that I have since fixed)

Thanks. Got it installed now!
