Ubuntu packaging - /usr/.crates2.json included #126

Ubuntu 20.04

I don't think it was included intentionally.

dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/hexyl_0.6.0-2build1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/.crates2.json', which is also in package ripgrep 11.0.2-1build1

Yes, that's really unfortunate. See related ticket here: https://github.com/sharkdp/bat/issues/938

Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about it here.

How do you package hexyl into deb? Can't you just exclude the file from the package?

sharkdp commented 3 years ago

The Debian/Ubuntu maintainers are doing that. Not me. This has to be fixed in Ubuntu (you linked to the ticket yourself).

We also build Debian packages here in this repository: https://github.com/sharkdp/hexyl/releases/tag/v0.8.0 - but you cannot install them with apt-get. You have to download them manually and then use dpkg to install. They should not have that problem.

ARAIR i was picking the deb build from releases page. But don't remember right now and will not check it.

I'm ok to close the issue.

It's easy to see from the .deb name and the file system path that these are NOT the packages that we build here. Those are the Ubuntu packages.
