debhelper 10 is available in the following Debian/Ubuntu releases:
- Debian 8.x Jessie (jessie-backports)
- Debian 9.x Stretch / unstable
- Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial (xenial-backports)
- Ubuntu 16.10 Yakkety
debhelper supports dh-autoreconf and dh-systemd by default, so we can
safely remove a few Build-Depends and dh params.
We also sync a few other files under debian/ folder with Debian release
3.0.2+ds-1~exp1.
This commit will fix .deb packaging instructions for Ubuntu 16.04.
Meanwhile, .deb packaging for Debian/Ubuntu is now only suitable
for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS or higher, Debian 9 or higher.
Debian 8 users won't be able to build from source too because this
project now requires libsodium >= 1.0.8. Jessie-packports is needed
to build on Debian 8.
* debian: add libpcre3-dev as build dependency.
* Bump soname of libshadowsocks-libev.
Soname for libshadowsocks-libev is bumped
from 1:0:0 to 2:0:0 due to ABI breakage
between shadowsocks-libev 2.5.0 and 2.5.1.
A few itmes deserve to be mentioned:
- use apg to generate random password when install.
- generated password won't get updated when upgrading / reinstall.
- add more to description to make lintian happy.
- generated Makefile.am don't need to be listed in debian/copyright.
- the way of installing systemd service is changed. Thanks to advice
from Boyuan.
- multi-arch can be archived without specific setting in debian/rules
- add debian/watch file
it's not conflicted with shadowsocks-python now. users can install both python and libev
ports of shaowsocks now. but they should migrate their old configuration file from
/etc/shadowsocks/config.json to /etc/shadowsocks-libev/config.json
Note:
Debian/Ubuntu users may have to `sudo rm -f /etc/shadowsocks` before install
the new `shadowsocks-libev` package.
For library user, the pkg-config package is renamed to `shadowsocks-libev` but
the library name is still the `libshadowsocks` (use `-lshadowsocks` to link)
