Howto: Update the .deb package

Using the include Makefile, updating the .deb package is pretty easy. The Makefile and most of the content of the /debian folder were inspired by this article.

Prerequisites

You will need a few prerequisites before being able to run the makefile (apart from the normal Connectome Mapper prequesites of course). The following command should do it on Debian-based systems: sudo apt-get install build-essential dpkg-dev debhelper devscripts fakeroot cdbs

Package building

In order to build the package simply run this command in the cmp folder: make builddeb

It should create a cmp__all.deb package in the upper folder hierarchy (../)

Modifying the package

Most of the package configuration is contained in the /debian/control file. Typically dependencies can be modified here.
