dh-make-ruby - build Debian source package from Ruby library
dh-make-ruby [OPTIONS]
[TARBALL|DIRECTORY]
dh-make-ruby will create a basic Debian source package from
a tarball named TARBALL generated with gem2tgz, or from a
DIRECTORY containing Ruby code and metadata in a .gemspec file. If no
argument is specified, dh-make-ruby will build a Debian source
package from the current directory.
- -p PACKAGE, --package
PACKAGE
- Uses PACKAGE as package name. By default, new packages will be named as
ruby-$gem, where $gem is the upstream name. If the
package is mainly used as a library, then it should use the default. On
the other hand, if the packages is mainly used as an application, then you
should drop the ruby- prefix by using this option an explicit package
u.
- -w,
--overwrite
- Overwrites packaging files that already exists but would be created by
dh-make-ruby if they didn't. Exception: debian/copyright is never
touched.
- --ruby-versions
VERSIONS
- Ruby versions to build the package for. This is used to generate the
X-Ruby-Versions: field in the source package, that can later be used to
tune this value. By default, gem2deb generates a package that works on all
known Ruby versions, but it might be necessary to only build the package
for Ruby 1.9.1, for example (using --ruby-versions
"ruby1.9.1").
- -h, --help
- Displays the help
- -v, --version
- Displays version information and exits.
- --no-wnpp-check
- Prevents dh-make-ruby to check wnpp reports to get the number of a
possible ITP (intend to package) bug report. By default,
dh-make-ruby does check these reports, which requires an Internet
access.
- -o, --offline
- Prevents dh-make-ruby from accessing the internet at all.
