Getting your package included in the Repository

  • Make sure it compiles after getting your build dependancies, dpkg-buildpackage.
  • Ideally test both dpkg-buildpackage -S -us -uc, dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc, dpkg-buildpackage -B (some packages may not build any arch-dep packages, so that's ok. Microdocument it on Jaiku.)
  • bzr export

    Invalid language.

    You need to specify a language like this: <source lang="html4strict">...</source>

    Supported languages for syntax highlighting:
