Hello,

Although building RPMs for SCST is possible since a long time by running
"make rpm" or "make scst-dkms-rpm", there was not yet an equivalent for
Debian users. Earlier today a build infrastructure for Debian packages 
has been checked in on the trunk. All what is needed to generate Debian 
packages is to run the following command:

make dpkg

That command will build Debian packages, store these in the dpkg/ 
directory and will show the names of these packages:
[ ... ]
Output files:
total 8444

According to your preference you can either install the scst package (binary
kernel modules) or the scst-dkms package (SCST source code that is rebuilt
after every kernel update) together with the scstadmin and/or iscsi-scst
package. The scst-dev package contains the SCST development headers (scst.h
etc).

Please note that so far these packages have only been tested lightly.
Although these packages are built from the same SCST source code everyone
uses, there may still be quirks in the package building process and/or in
the pre- and post-install and removal scripts.

If anyone would like to jump in and would like to submit patches for
improving this infrastructure that would be welcome.

Thanks,

Bart.
