BUILDD.CONF

NAME

DESCRIPTION

While buildd permits many aspects of its behaviour to be configured, this should not normally be required. The defaults should be adequate for most uses, and should only be changed if you are doing something more advanced, or have specialist requirements.  

CONFIGURATION

Build environment

PATH

STRING type. PATH to set when running dpkg-buildpackage.

Default:

$path = '/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games';

Build options

ARCH

STRING type. Build architecture.

Default:

$arch = 'i386';

DISTRIBUTION

STRING type. Default distribution. By default, no distribution is defined, and the user must specify it with the -d option. However, a default may be configured here if desired. Users must take care not to upload to the wrong distribution when this option is set, for example experimental packages will be built for upload to unstable when this is not what is required.

Default:

$distribution = undef;

DISTRIBUTIONS

ARRAY:HASH:SCALAR type. List of distributions that buildd should take packages from Example:

$distributions = [
       {

               # name of the suite to build (also used to query wanna-build)

               dist_name => ["unstable", "testing"],


               # architecture to be built (will be passed to sbuild and can be

               # used to compute wanna_build_db_name

               built_architecture => undef,


               # host on which wanna-build is run

               wanna_build_ssh_host => "buildd.debian.org",


               # user as who we are going to connect to the host running wanna-build

               wanna_build_ssh_user => "buildd_arch",


               # SSH control socket path for ssh -S option

               wanna_build_ssh_socket => "",


               # Additional SSH options used when connecting

               wanna_build_ssh_options => [],


               # database used for wanna-build

               wanna_build_db_name => "arch/build-db",


               # Username to use for wanna-build.

               wanna_build_db_user => $Buildd::username,


               # Local queue directory where binaries are stored before uploaded

               # by dupload. You need to configure this directory in

               # @upload_queues to get packages uploaded from there.

               dupload_local_queue_dir => "upload",


               # list of packages which shouldn't be picked up by buildd

               no_auto_build => [],


               # list of packages which should only be taken if there absolutely

               # nothing else to do (probably packages included in no_auto_build

               # because they take too long)

               weak_no_auto_build => [],


               # regex used to filter out unwanted packages:

               #no_build_regex => "^(contrib/|non-free/)?non-US/",


               # regex used to filter packages to build:

               #build_regex => "",


               # mail addr of buildd admin handling packages from this distribution

               logs_mailed_to => $admin_mail,


               # schroot name (or alias) of the chrooted environment to use for

               # building (will be passed to sbuild). sbuild's default is

               # the first of $distribution-$arch-sbuild, $distribution-sbuild,

               # $distribution-$arch and $distribution.

               sbuild_chroot => undef,
