Debian Packaging
|
||
|
|
----------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Tagged releases and develop branch commits are available as installable Debian packages
|
||
|
|
for Ubuntu. Packages are built for the all Ubuntu versions which are supported by
|
||
|
|
Canonical:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Trusty Tahr (14.04 LTS)
|
||
|
|
- Wily Werewolf (15.10)
|
||
|
|
- Xenial Xerus (16.04 LTS)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Packages of develop branch commits have suffix -unstable and cannot be installed alongside
|
||
|
|
the stable version. Switching between release streams requires user intervention.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The packages are built and served by launchpad.net. We generate a Debian source package
|
||
|
|
for each distribution and upload it. Their builder picks up the source package, builds it
|
||
|
|
and installs the new version into the PPA repository. Launchpad requires a valid signature
|
||
|
|
by a team member for source package uploads. The signing key is stored in an environment
|
||
|
|
variable which Travis CI makes available to certain builds.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We want to build go-ethereum with the most recent version of Go, irrespective of the Go
|
||
|
|
version that is available in the main Ubuntu repository. In order to make this possible,
|
||
|
|
our PPA depends on the ~gophers/ubuntu/archive PPA. Our source package build-depends on
|
||
|
|
golang-1.6, which is co-installable alongside the regular golang package. PPA dependencies
|
||
|
|
