Provisional page for the CFEngine Debian-team

Eventually we would like it to all be on github, but a start is a start. We will copy the content to github any suitable moment.

Git repository

git://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/cfengine3.git

We are in the process of merging the existing Debian code with the code of CFengine 3.5.1. We have to determine whether it is still useful to do the merge because of the extent of the changes to the code. It might be beyond the point where it adds to the process.

Mission Statement

To produce a high quality, current, Debian native CFEngine package suitable for inclusion directly in Debian stable release.

Starting point

The Debian CFengine release now (20130728) relates to CFengine 3.0.5. CFengine now is at 3.5 and has major changes and improvements with regards to stability and functionailty. We the Debian-team decided to build the native CFengine 3.5.1. Debian stable Wheezy package.

Plan

  • preconditions
  • scope
  • risks
  • gouvernance
  • relationships to the commercial edtion and third party solutions
  • Planning and milestones to be obeserved

tenants

  • As much as possible cfengine-core should support Debian natively
    • Prefer patching cfengine rather than Debian
    • Use IFDEF where necessary
  • Strictly adhere to Debian packaging policies
    • Debian FHS layout

Creating a buildable debian package should be as easy as obtaining the cfengine source and dropping in the debian directory.
