Package for Debian buster ? #130

Closed Eclion closed 2 years ago

Eclion commented 2 years ago

Hello!

I was looking into GLB-director to reproduce the setup mentioned on Github Blog, but couldn't install it as the package repository for Debian "buster" doesn't exist (maybe that's what happened for #51 ?).

Will there be any package for Debian - buster?

Before I can think about contributing, I have few questions:

What is the reason behind enforcing dpdk=17.11.1-6 and not allowing newer versions?
Any ideas regarding what may entails the upgrade from "stretch" to "buster"?

Kind regards, Eclion

here is the perspective on those two points.

DPDK: Its just a way for us to pin point a version to control upgrades.
upgrade to buster for the packages would be a good first contribution. That would be a new docker file and firing it a way and seeing if all of it works.

I would recommend that you try to play with the tooling a bit more and that would drive you into more specific issues that you can ask here. Which will get you to the point to be able to contribute more.

Hello @EriGWorld,

Thanks for the tips! I will close this issue and open a new one when I'll have a more specific issue after playing with the tool as you suggested.
