[Pkg-electronics-devel] fix for geda

[Sean Peters]

Hi,

geda 1.6.2 in sid is quite out of date (2011), it's homepage has moved and
the latest stable is 1.8.1

Here's what i had to do to build it:

wget http://ftp.geda-project.org/geda-gaf/stable/v1.8/1.8.1/geda-gaf-1.8.1.tar.gz
mv geda-gaf-1.8.1.tar.gz geda-gaf_1.8.1.orig.tar.gz
tar xvf geda-gaf_1.8.1.orig.tar.gz
cd geda-gaf-1.8.1
tar xvf ../geda-gaf_1.6.2-3.debian.tar.gz
rm -r debian/patches
dch -v 1:1.8.1-1

change debian/rules:
  LIBPKG=libgeda38 -> LIBPKG=libgeda42

mv debian/libgeda38.install debian/libgeda42.install

edit debian/libgeda42.install
  usr/lib/*/libgeda.so.* -> usr/lib/libgeda.so*

mv debian/libgeda38.docs debian/libgeda42.docs

edit debian/libgeda-dev.install
  remove usr/lib/*/libgeda.so
  usr/lib/*/pkgconfig -> usr/lib/pkgconfig

edit debian/control
  libgeda38 -> libgeda42 changes
  change dependancies to like 1:1.8.1

rm debian/libgeda38.symbols
dpkg-gensymbols -plibgeda42 -Odebian/libgeda42.symbols

remove override_dh_install section from debian/rules

rm debian/*.manpages

dpkg-buildpackage

Also debian/watch and debian/README.debian need updating to new site (geda-project.org)

Sean
