Drupal Debian Packages

manatorg - June 27, 2006 - 10:27

Hi,
I've made some experimental debian packages for drupal 4.7 and some modules. They are far from perfect but work for me somehow.
If you are interested, you can find them here:

hi,
thanks for your reply. i am aware of the official debian packages. my package is just a updated version of these, because the official ist very outdated.
i will add a message to the bug report, although i don't have the feeling that my packages are "debian-quality".

cheers

Drupal debian package names

kaare - July 8, 2006 - 21:16

Each major version of drupal should have it's own package in debian, like drupal-4.6, drupal-4.7 an maybe even drupal-cvs.

Debian

Hi,
whats the reason for this? Is it to avoid a automatic update to a new major version (and the included change of the database) or to have the option to install different major version parallel? or other reasons?

Update to Package/Site

manatorg - July 12, 2006 - 13:15

Updates
* The Page now displays with Mozilla and Others. This was a bug due to invalid html-syntax. *ARGL*. Sorry for that.
* Updates to the Drupal Package. Now it should install better on most Systems. Thanks to Tzafrir Cohens for testing, changes and notes!!!

updated to 4.7.4

manatorg - October 20, 2006 - 18:05

hi,
i've updated the packages to 4.7.4

please tell me any bugs.

cheers

unofficial debian packages of drupal5

manatorg - November 21, 2006 - 10:33

i just made some unofficial debian packages of drupal5. maybe someone here is interested.
you could find them at the usual place:
http://khn.brainlog.de/debs/drupal/
source is also there.

as always:
- no support (not really)
- experimental software, no warrenty
- don't use on production systems!!!

as the package name is changed to drupal5 they may be installable in parallel to old drupal packages.

some notes:
- for automatic database installation you probable have to call "dpkg-reconfigure -plow drupal5"
after that visit http://yourhost/drupalbase/install.php
- dependencies still need some work - check that everything is installed correctly (likely errors will be apache1 and libapache2-php and such)

have fun

cheers
