my MOTU quick fix

This article is about the ubuntu packaging (MOTU) and the quick fix. Because some people didn't get exactly what the want after following the video tutorial

Here are base tutorials about ubuntu packaging:
<<---environment setup-->> after this first step everything still runnung well......

<<--packaging-->> my problems after follow this second video are:

  • unmached gpg key which cant get the secret key(or something that related with key even if we checked installed key by running gpg --list-key, the required key is already there)
    this prolem solved by leave the comment field blank while generating gpg key
  • cant complete the requirements event all of the requirements already installed
    here is my error message:
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy: Depends: debhelper (>= 7) but it is not installable
    Resolving dependencies...
    The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

    Aptitude couldn't satisfy the build dependencies
    E: pbuilder-satisfydepends failed.


    this can be fixed byby running this command before perform package building:
    sudo pbuilder create --distribution < ubuntu_version> --othermirror "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com
    /ubuntu main restricted universe multiverse"

    since i use intrepid, i change < ubuntu_version> with intrepid. This command download more package dependency, since perhaps the file which written on .pbuilderrc on my base directory are not loaded
<<--updatting-->> and this part is running well

in advance, you can get another video from ubuntu developer including paching tutorial here

happy linuxing........
good luck......
