For version 4.x and newer
Testing .debs can be found in http://sourceforge.net/projects/gramps/files/Unstable/
Gramps 4 moved to setuptool/distutils installer.
Dependency
- debian stuff
sudo apt-get install devscripts dpkg-dev fakeroot debhelper dh-linktree
- stdeb, which produces Debian source packages from Python packages via a new distutils command, sdist_dsc. Automatic defaults are provided for the Debian package, but many aspects of the resulting package can be customized. An additional command, bdist_deb, creates a Debian binary package, a .deb file. The debianize command builds a debian/ directory directly alongside your setup.py.
sudo apt-get install python-stdeb python3-all
Build
- WARNING
- The launcher under /usr/bin/gramps is using the same path for current stable release and this testing version. Backup your launcher if you want to install both versions. Translations might be also overwritten, you have been warned...
- You need at least version 3.3.2 of python-gobject for Gramps 4.x.
- You cannot use greater version than 2.28 of python-gobject for Gramps 3.4.x.
via a quick command line
python setup.py --command-packages=stdeb.command bdist_deb
- Custom tarball
python setup.py --command-packages=stdeb.command sdist_dsc
or
python setup.py --command-packages=stdeb.command sdist_dsc --depends "python-gobject (>= 3.3.2)"
via customized options
These options are set into /debian folder.

Instructions on creating the Debian package for Ubuntu
- Check out the necessary version; for example, to build the .deb file for GRAMPS 5.2.3, you'll want to run:
git clone http://git.code.sf.net/p/gramps/source Gramps git checkout v5.2.3 -b 5.2.3
- Create the Changelog files:
git log v5.2.3.. --pretty --numstat --summary --no-merges | git2cl > ChangeLog git log v5.2.3.. --pretty --numstat --summary --no-merges -- po/*.po | git2cl > po/ChangeLog
Using the Changelog files generated with git2cl,
Modify MANIFEST.in
+ include ChangeLog + include po/ChangeLog
- The details on how things are going to be packaged into deb files, what are the dependencies, the pre- and post- install and removal scripts etc are under debian/ directory. Please refer to the Debian New Maintainers' Guide for further details.
