Packaging

Prerequisites

The package build system is based on Docker, please read the documentation at Install Docker how to set it up on your system.

For example, on Debian 11 (bullseye), you would install it like this:

# Acquire package signing key.
wget -qO - https://download.docker.com/linux/debian/gpg | apt-key add -

# Register with package repository.
echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/debian bullseye stable" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list
apt-get update

# Install Docker.
apt-get install docker-ce

After installing Docker, some additional packages are needed:

apt-get install python3 python3-venv git make qemu-user-static binfmt-support

Then, get hold of the sources and install a minimum part of the sandbox:

git clone https://github.com/daq-tools/kotori
cd kotori
make install-releasetools

Baseline images

Prepare baseline Docker images:

make package-baseline-images

Optionally, prepare dependency wheel packages (most users can skip this step):

./packaging/wheels/build.sh
./packaging/wheels/upload.sh

Debian packages

Build packages for all targets:

make package-all version=0.26.6

Build individual packages for Debian and Ubuntu:

# amd64
make package-debian flavor=full dist=stretch arch=amd64 version=0.26.6
make package-debian flavor=full dist=buster arch=amd64 version=0.26.6
make package-debian flavor=full dist=bionic arch=amd64 version=0.26.6

# arm64v8
make package-debian flavor=standard dist=stretch arch=arm64v8 version=0.26.6
make package-debian flavor=standard dist=buster arch=arm64v8 version=0.26.6

# arm32v7
make package-debian flavor=standard dist=stretch arch=arm32v7 version=0.26.6
make package-debian flavor=standard dist=buster arch=arm32v7 version=0.26.6

Docker images

Authenticate with Docker Hub

We need to do both:

# Run ``docker login`` to be able to regularly push images.
docker login

# Set environment variables because the ``manifest-tool`` requires that.
export DOCKER_USERNAME=johndoe
export DOCKER_PASSWORD=supersecret

Build and publish Docker images

Invoke:

make package-docker-images version=0.26.6

Run basic QA checks:

make package-docker-qa tag=0.26.6

Designate specific version as latest:

make package-docker-link version=0.26.6 tag=latest

Troubleshooting

If you are observing messages like this when building for arm64v8:

Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.31-13+deb11u2) ...
qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - core dumped
Segmentation fault

you might be happy to hear that we found a solution at Kotori issue #73 already: You will probably need a more recent version of qemu-aarch64-static. Version 4.2.1 did not work, but version 5.0.0 did.
