Package in Debian?

[weetmuts]

Yes! I am preparing for a deb package generation! Expect something in this or next week!

Ah, I meant to post this comment on the wmbusmeters issue. @petterreinholdtsen If you can help out packaging rtl_wmbus that would be great! I will work on the wmbusmeters side.

While I am happy to assist with the initial packaging, I lack the spare time and bandwidth to take responsiblity for more packages, and thus limit myself to sponsoring (aka supervise and help with the uploading). Someone else need to take the leed on rtl_wmbus.

Any luck?

I tested making a Debian package by asking dh_make from dh-make to create a single package build framework, and discovered a patch like #33 is needed to get the build going and the binary to
install in the proper location.

Hi Petter,

just merged your patches into - thanks.

In debian/control I had to replace Build-Depends: debhelper-compat (= 13) with ... (= 11) because I have an old Ubuntu and having (= 13) did not work. I'm not familiar with building of deb packages and hope that I did not broke something ;)

Most likely did not break anything. The version control debhelper behaviour, and you can check under 'COMPATIBILITY LEVELS' in debhelper(7) what changed from 11 to 13. I had a quick look to see if anything seemed relevant, without noticing anything.
