ppa - How to provide more up-to-date versions of existing Ubuntu software for a lower version? - Ask Ubuntu


concretely, i'd provide version of add-apt-repository --enable-sources option ubuntu 12.04 used travis-ci.org ci service, i'm looking generic solution. figured it'd easy provide them through ppa, don't find guide how repackage software debian software.

afaik, first relevant command in case source root retrieved apt-get source bzr builddeb -- -s -us -uc fails due bzr: error: not branch: "/afs/richtercloud.de/sources/software-properties-0.96.24.7/". software-properties.

in case dealing debian source package not bazaar source repository, did idea?

the work-flow quite different. can't resume every thing here, vast topic. here points show quick 1 of many ways out there.

  1. check package

    $ apt-add-repository  /usr/bin/apt-add-repository  $ dpkg -s /usr/bin/apt-add-repository software-properties-common: /usr/bin/apt-add-repository

  2. download source

    apt-get source software-properties-common

  3. install build dependencies

    sudo apt-get build-dep software-properties-common

  4. build source package

    $ cd software-properties-*/ $ dch  software-properties (0.96.20ubuntu1~trusty) trusty; urgency=medium    * backport trusty   -- first last <username@gmail.com>  sun, 20 nov 2016 18:43:42 +0100  $ cd ../software-properties-*/ $ debuild -s  $ ls ..

  5. upload ppa

    dput yourppa ../software-properties_0.96.20ubuntu1~trusty_source.changes
