Unix/Linux Packages

Requirements

The best way to use the packaging scripts, is to use a PorterPackage. You can build one yourself using the make_delivery script or simply download one from http://dev.eiffel.com/Downloads. The unpacked PorterPackage should already contain all necessary scripts and files.

Next thing you will need is a compiled EiffelXY delivery. Running compile_exes in the PorterPackage will give you a fresh compiled EiffelXY delivery where set_aliases is already set up correctly.

Alternatively, you could also use a prebuilt delivery. Change $FINAL_INSTALL_DIR in set_aliases so it points to the same directory as $ISE_EIFFEL. Also don't forget to change $MAJOR_NUMBER, $MINOR_NUMBER and $VERSION to the version of your delivery.

Debian packages

Following debian packages are required:

  • build-essential
  • devscripts
  • debhelper
  • fakeroot
  • lintian (optional)

To install the packages, copy paste following code into a root shell: 

apt-get install build-essential devscripts debhelper fakeroot lintian

RPM packages

Following RPM packages are required:

  • rpm-build

To install the package, copy past following code into a root shell: 

yum install rpm-build

Creating the packages
