1 Here is what to do to make binary packages using CMake.
3 The string "_SRC_DIR_" represents the cmake-lyx-build-directory, e.g. /usr/src/lyx/lyx-devel.
4 The string "_BUILD_DIR_" represents the cmake-lyx-build-directory, e.g. /usr/BUILD/BuildLyx.
5 The string "_PKG_NAME_" represents the name of the package, like "lyx-2.1.38687-Linux" on my Linux-system
8 cd _BUILD_DIR_; cmake-gui _SRC_DIR_
9 select: Show Advanced Entries
11 Now select the package-type(s) you would like to be build
14 Likewise you may call cmake directly. E.g. to create debian package
15 cd _BUILD_DIR_; cmake _SRC_DIR_ -DCPACK_BINARY_DEB:BOOL=ON
16 The generators (dependent on your system) are
17 DEB, RPM, TGZ, NSIS, STGZ, TBZ2, TZ
19 Now it is possible to create the package
20 cd _BUILD_DIR_; make package
21 #The created packages will be something like
27 In archives for TGZ, STGZ, TBZ2 or TZ the filenames are prepended with the package-name,
28 therefore we have to get rid of it (e.g. for STGZ the parameter "--exclude-subdir").
29 Some installation proceedings:
30 STGZ: sudo _PKG_NAME_.sh --exclude-subdir
31 TGZ: sudo tar -zxv --strip-components 1 --directory / -f _PKG_NAME_.tar.gz
32 DEB: sudo dpkg -i _PKG_NAME_.deb
33 RPM: sudo rpm -U --force _PKG_NAME_.rpm
