I'm using the following to roll local snapshot releases.
To make the initial checkout:
git clone git://git.xfce.org/kalikiana/midori midori &&
apt-get source midori &&
cd midori &&
zcat ../midori*.diff.gz | patch -p1
To update and roll a .deb:
debuild clean &&
git pull &&
v=$(git describe --tags) && v=${v%-*} && v=${v//-/+} &&
dch -v $v-1 'New upstream snapshot.' &&
tar --exclude .git --exclude debian -lzma -cf ../${PWD##*/}_$v.orig.tar.lzma -C .. ${PWD##*/} &&
mkdir -p debian/source && echo '3.0 (quilt)' >debian/source/format &&
pdebuild
Midori has a large number of optional dependencies; I have made some
of them build dependencies based on what I think is widely useful.
The easiest way to build your own custom binary without such support
is to move the appropriate entries from Build-Depends to
Build-Conflicts in debian/control.
- gtk-doc-tools: API documentation.
- python-docutils: HTML user documentation (from plain text).
- intltool: localized UI text (menu titles and such).
- libunique-dev: turns midori into a client/server arrangement,
where subsequent calls will open windows in the first midori.
- libsoup2.4-dev: view source code and favicons and "save as".
- libsqlite3-dev: persistent history. Without this, browsing
history is lost when you quit midori. Possibly also relevant for
bookmarks, I'm not sure. Compiles OK with libsqlite0-dev, but
history isn't persistent.
- librsvg2-bin: create PNG icons from SVG source at compile time.
This avoids needing to rasterize the SVGs on the fly each time
midori is run.
- libidn11-dev: internationalized domain names.
- libhildon-1-dev: an alternative to GTK2, for embedded systems.
