Uploading Package to PPA
Contents
After creating a Launchpad account:
Docker build, cloning the MariaDB repository and mapping it to the docker container
1. mkdir mariadb-source
2. cd mariadb-source
3. vi Dockerfile
4. Copy the following contents to Dockerfile:
# MariaDB 10.3 Ubuntu 17.10 build environment # Published as mariadb-10-3-ubuntu-17.10-build-env FROM ubuntu:17.10 RUN DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update && \ apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \ systemd \ devscripts \ build-essential \ lsb-release \ equivs \ git \ curl \ git-buildpackage \ nano \ vim \ pristine-tar RUN curl -skO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ottok/mariadb-10.1/ubuntu-17.10/debian/control ENV GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY true RUN mk-build-deps -t 'apt-get -y -o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=yes --no-install-recommends' -i control ENV container docker ENV DEBIAN_FRONTEND noninteractive ENV LANG C.UTF-8 ENV LC_ALL C.UTF-8
5. Run docker build . -t ubuntu-17.10-packaging
6. Do git clone of the latest repository:
cd && mkdir debian-packaging && cd debian-packaging && git clone https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-team/mariadb-10.1.git
Generate, publish and upload PGP key
7. Generate OpenPGP key with the following command:
$ gpg --gen-key
- select (1) RSA and RSA
- Keysize: accept 2048
- Valid for: accept 0
- Type name, email and comment (comment is optional)
- Type 0
- Type passphrase (twice)
- Follow instructions to help generate a random key
- Keep the Key ID and fingerprint text, they are needed in the next step
Set generated key as default in ~/.bashrc
$ nano ~/.bashrc
[.. add this ..]
export GPGKEY=<key_id>
Restart GPG-agent and source '/.bashrc', or restart session
8. Publish the key to the key server:
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --send-keys 12345678
and substitute 12345678
with your key's id
- If this gives timeout error, keep re-trying after a while
9. Upload the key's fingerprint here: Upload https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/ImportingYourPGPKey fingerprint here https://launchpad.net/~rsurve/+editpgpkeys
10. gpg --export [your-key-id] > ~/debian-packaging/pub.key
11. gpg --export-secret-key [your-key-id] > ~/debian-packaging/secret.key
gpg -k
^Should show the key
12. How to upload: https://github.com/exelearning/iteexe/wiki/How-to-upload-to-Launchpad-PPA-repository-(.deb-packages)
13. Open /etc/devscripts.conf
And look for this line:
DEBSIGN_MAINT
Uncomment it and add your name there
export DEBEMAIL=[your-email-id]
From inside the container
14. docker run -v ~/debian-packaging/:/repo -it ubuntu-17.10-packaging bash
15. apt-get install devscripts
16. gpg --import pub.key
17. gpg --import secret.key
18. gpg -k
19. cd /repo/mariadb-10.1 && git fetch && git checkout pristine-tar && git checkout ubuntu-17.10
20. git clean -dffx && git reset --hard HEAD
21. export DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="parallel=10 nocheck"
or export DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="parallel=5 nocheck"
22. Go to /repo
folder (Inside docker) and delete all the files except mariadb-10.1 folder:
rm *
23.
gbp buildpackage
For re-running the set up container
24. To generate an ID, run:
docker commit <container-id>
This will generate an ID.
For restarting the same container again use this ID:
docker run -v ~/debian-packaging/:/repo -it <ID> bash
25. Last command for uploading package to PPA:
backportpackage -u <your-ppa-address> -d <ubuntu-version-to-backport-to> -S ~<a-version-suffix-name-for-this-package> <the-most-recent-dsc-file>
Example:
backportpackage -u ppa:cvicentiu/mariadb-10.0-dev2 -d bionic -S ~testtry mariadb-10.1_10.1.30-0ubuntu0.17.10.1.dsc
Run this command in the /repo
folder, where the .dsc
file is located
It should ask for the gpg key password again
