Hello everyone,

For our meet-up that is starting soon, I would like everyone to have a workin=
g installation of Pakfire - our new build system.

I am not sure yet in what way we are going to use it, but generally there wil=
l be an intro for everyone who hasn=E2=80=99t had one yet, and maybe we even =
get a chance to update a few packages of the distribution or something=E2=80=
=A6

Because I don=E2=80=99t know which distributions you are using, and because w=
e don=E2=80=99t have any packages for any major distribution just yet, I woul=
d like to ask everyone to install Pakfire manually on their systems in advanc=
e of our meet-up, so that we can start straight away. We should also use the =
time to find any issues that might occur on other distributions than Debian w=
hich is what I have been using.

Please find the source here: https://git.ipfire.org/?p=3Dpakfire.git;a=3Dsumm=
ary

On Debian, I have to install these packages as dependencies (yes it is quite =
a lot):

* asciidoc, autoconf, automake, bison, build-essential, flex, intltool, libar=
chive-dev, libcap-dev, libcurl4-openssl-dev, libelf-dev, libgpgme-dev, libjso=
n-c-dev, liblzma-dev, libmagic-dev, libmount-dev, libnl-3-dev, libnl-route-3-=
dev, libpcre2-dev, libpython3-dev, libseccomp-dev, libsolv-dev, libsqlite3-de=
v, libssl-dev, libsystemd-dev, libtool, libzstd-dev, pkg-config, python3-cpui=
nfo, python3-kerberos, python3-tornado, python3-psutil, python3-setproctitle,=
 uuid-dev

I have no idea what the package names will be for your distribution, but I am=
 sure you will all figure it out :)

You can use the usual three-clause build process after generating the configu=
re script:

  ./autogen.sh
  ./configure =E2=80=94-prefix=3D/usr =E2=80=94-sysconfdir=3D/etc =E2=80=94-e=
nable-debug
  make
  (make check)
  make install

After that, you should be able to run pakfire-builder =E2=80=94-help.

Please let me know if that works for you up to this point and please file a b=
ug if changes are required to make Pakfire work on your distribution.

All the best,
-Michael
