debian packaging. #22

Open sjlongland opened 9 years ago

sjlongland commented 9 years ago

This is an initial Debian package for QAMQP, obviously not yet of Debian repository standard, but should serve as a useful starting point for those wishing to package QAMQP for use in Debian or Ubuntu repositories.

Built packages are at http://bne.vrt.com.au/debian/ This should be a big step to solving issue 15.

whoa looks like there are a ton of unused example files in here, can we get rid of those that we don't need? Also, perhaps the README and README.source need a little something, or just delete them as well? I confess to not being very familiar with how debs are packaged, but this looks like a good start!

Indeed, there probably is a tonne of crap in there, but it's a starting point. ;-)

The files can possibly be whittled down through a process of trial and error, someone who knows better about Debian packaging than I would know exactly what ones to keep.

The other consideration is other distributions, I have a Gentoo ebuild for building qamqp from git sources, and I'm sure someone will want a

SRPM for Red-Hat derivatives.
