dpkg
и apt
поверить в то, что какой-либо пакет установлен, даже если он пуст. Это позволяет удовлетворить зависимость от пакета, когда соответствующее программное обеспечение было установлено в обход системы управления пакетами. Хотя такой способ работает, его следует по возможности избегать, ведь нет никакой гарантии, что установленное вручную программное обеспечение ведет себя точно так же, как соответствующий пакет, и зависящие от него пакеты могут работать некорректно.
equivs-control
and equivs-build
commands in the equivs package. The equivs-control file
command creates a Debian package header file that should be edited to contain the name of the expected package, its version number, the name of the maintainer, its dependencies, and its description. Other fields without a default value are optional and can be deleted. The Copyright
, Changelog
, Readme
and Extra-Files
fields are not standard fields in Debian packages; they only make sense within the scope of equivs-build
, and they will not be kept in the headers of the generated package.
Пример 15.2. Заголовочный файл пакета-пустышки libxml-libxml-perl
Section: perl Priority: optional Standards-Version: 4.6.2 Package: libxml-libxml-perl Version: 2.0207-1 Maintainer: Raphael Hertzog <hertzog@debian.org> Depends: libxml2 (>= 2.9.10) Architecture: all Description: Fake package - module manually installed in site_perl This is a fake package to let the packaging system believe that this Debian package is installed. . In fact, the package is not installed since a newer version of the module has been manually compiled & installed in the site_perl directory.
equivs-build файл
. Voilà: пакет создан в текущем каталоге и с ним можно работать, как с любым другим пакетом Debian.

directory to contain the target source package. The package will, logically, be named falcot-data
and bear the 1.0
version number. The administrator then places the document files in a data
subdirectory. Then they invoke the dh_make
command (from the dh-make package) to add files required by the package generation process, which will all be stored in a debian
subdirectory:
$
cd falcot-data-1.0
$
dh_make --native

[Y/n/q] Currently there is not top level Makefile. This may require additional tuning Done. Please edit the files in the debian/ subdirectory now. $
Architecture: all
in debian/control
). single acts as a counterpart, and leads to a single binary package that is dependent on the target architecture (Architecture: any
). In this case, the former choice is more relevant since the package only contains documents and no binary programs, so it can be used similarly on computers of all architectures.
dh_make
command created a debian
subdirectory with many files. Some are required, in particular rules
, control
, changelog
and copyright
. Files with the .ex
extension are example files that can be used by modifying them (and removing the extension) when appropriate. When they are not needed, removing them is recommended. The compat
file is not used nor created anymore. Instead of defining the debhelper compatibility level as a number in this file, it is now defined as a build-dependency on the debhelper-compat virtual package in the Build-Depends
field in debian/control
.
copyright
file must contain information about the authors of the documents included in the package, and the related copyright and license. In our case, these are internal documents and their use is restricted to within the Falcot Corp company. The default format used for this file is defined in the Format
field.
changelog
file is generally appropriate; replacing the “Initial release” with a more verbose explanation and changing the distribution from UNRELEASED
or unstable
to the target release name is enough.
control
file must also be updated: the Section
field can be changed to misc and the Homepage
, Vcs-Git
and Vcs-Browser
fields were removed. The Depends
fields was completed with firefox-esr | www-browser
so as to ensure the availability of a web browser able to display the documents in the package. If the package does not require to run any commands as root (see ИНСТРУМЕНТ fakeroot
), the Rules-Requires-Root
field can be left as is.

rules
обычно содержит набор правил, используемых для конфигурирования, сборки и установки программного обеспечения в выделенный подкаталог (названный именем собранного двоичного пакета). Содержимое этого подкаталога затем архивируется в пакет Debian, как если бы это был корневой каталог файловой системы. В нашем случае файлы будут установлены в подкаталог debian/falcot-data/usr/share/falcot-data/
, чтобы установка созданного пакета развернула файлы в /usr/share/falcot-data/
. Файл rules
используется в качестве Makefile
с несколькими стандартными целями (включая clean
и binary
, используемые соответственно для очистки каталога с исходным кодом и создания двоичного пакета).
debhelper
. Так обстоит дело с файлами, созданными с помощью dh_make
. Чтобы установить наши файлы, мы просто настроим поведение команды dh_install
, создав следующий файл debian/falcot-data.install
:
data/* usr/share/falcot-data/
falcot-data.desktop
, установим в /usr/share/applications
, добавив вторую строчку в debian/falcot-data.install
.
