This page aims to explain how to create debian packages for the FPC compiler. For more general information about FPC release, see Release engineering page.
Getting sources
FPC sources are managed using SVN. The most convenient way to get sources in order to build a release is using the svn export command :
svn export http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpcbuild/tags/release_x_y_z fpcbuild-x.y.z
Building packages
The top make file of the fpcbuild-x.y.z branch supports the deb target which is intended to build Debian packages from source.
make deb
However, users may want to use their own packeging rules file
make deb DEBDIR=<some path to debian dir>
Or use a particular libgdb version
make deb GDBLIBDIR=<path/${OS_TARGET}/${CPU_TARGET}>
How it works
To be continued...
