Creating a deb from a package doesn't result in dependencies about fpm HOT 7 CLOSED

Hey Gavin,

Yeah, you need to specify dependencies with -d dependency. FPM will try to infer all it can about the package, but you have to tell it the rest.

see: https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm/blob/master/bin/fpm#L38

On the other hand, if you did use -d and it still came up empty, then this is a bug and I'll look into it.

Thanks Jay. I had -d specified, was using:

But I also tried with the deps using >=

Gotcha. I'll take a look later today, see if I can fix it.

Ahh, I think I figured it out. Patch coming.

Tested with this:

% fakeroot make install DESTDIR=/tmp/installdir
 % fpm -n grok -v 1.20110112.3203  -t deb -C /tmp/installdir -p grok-VERSION_ARCH.deb -d "libevent (> 1.4)" -d "libpcre3 (> 7)" -d "libtokyocabinet8 (> 1.4)" usr/bin usr/lib usr/include usr/share
% dpkg --info grok-1.20110112.3203-1_amd64.deb | grep Dep
 Depends: libevent (> 1.4), libpcre3 (> 7), libtokyocabinet8 (> 1.4)

Seems ok now.

fpm gem version 0.1.7 has this fix.

Closing. Feel free to reopen if this isn't fixed :)

Updated and tested and it works fine.
