Make sure you have network access and the git command.
Go to your build directory and checkout rudder-packages
cd /usr/src git clone https://github.com/Normation/rudder-packages.git cd rudder-packages
Choose the branch to build
# For branch 4.1 (branches before 4.1 are not supported) git checkout branches/rudder/4.1 cd rudder-agent
Now choose one of the 3 next chapter, depending on your case: dpkg (debian-like package), rpm (redhat-like package) or other.
Set the version to build:
- Update the debian/changelog file to make the first entry match the version you want to build.
- Edit the SOURCES/Makefile file and set the value of RUDDER_VERSION_TO_PACKAGE: see http://www.rudder-project.org/archives/ for a complete list of available versions.
Run the dpkg package builder:
dpkg-buildpackage
The package will be stored in the parent directory.
Set the version to build:
- Edit the SOURCES/Makefile file and set the value of RUDDER_VERSION_TO_PACKAGE: see http://www.rudder-project.org/archives/ for a complete list of available versions.
Run the rpm package builder:
# make sure you are in in rudder-agent, then ln -s `pwd` /root/rpmbuild rpmbuild -ba --define 'real_version 4.1.0' SPECS/*.spec
The package will be stored in RPMS/
Before building the agent, you must decide on some environment variables:
- RUDDER_VERSION_TO_PACKAGE: the version of the sources that will be used, see http://www.rudder-project.org/archives/ for a complete list. If a rudder-sources directory exists in SOURCES it will be used instead of downloading sources. The Variable still needs to be defined though.
- DESTDIR: where to put the installation, use / to install on the system and leave the default of ./target to prepare a package.
- USE_SYSTEM_OPENSSL: (default true), use system openssl (depends on libssl-dev) or build it with the agent.
- USE_SYSTEM_LMDB: (default false), use system lmdb (depends on liblmdb-dev) or build it with the agent.
- USE_SYSTEM_PCRE: (default true), use system pcre (depends on libpcre3-dev) or build it with the agent.
- USE_SYSTEM_PERL: (default false), use system perl (depends on perl) or build it with the agent.
- USE_SYSTEM_FUSION: (default false), use system fusion (depends on fusioninventory-agent), or build it with the agent. We advise you to use the Rudder version since it contains some patches.
