I downloaded the source package as written on ​https://subtrac.sara.nl/oss/pxeconfig/wiki/PxeInstallation and created the Debian package. I installed the package on Ubuntu lucid without inetd or xinetd installed.

The package installation failed in the postinst script because of missing dependencies. The Debian package should include the dependency inetd | xinetd.

Building the Debian package fails with some error messages when cdbs is not installed:

debian/rules:8: /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/buildcore.mk: No such file or directory

debian/rules:9: /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk: No such file or directory

debian/rules:10: /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/autotools.mk: No such file or directory

debian/rules:11: /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/makefile.mk: No such file or directory

make: * Keine Regel, um »/usr/share/cdbs/1/class/makefile.mk« zu erstellen. Schluss.

I tried to add cdbs to Build-Depends but it does not help. There should be a check for cdbs in the build process if possible. At least the installation documentation should inform the user that cdbs is needed to build the package.

I think cdbs is not an installation dependency, that's why I removed it from Depends. See attached patch.

I downloaded the source package as written on ​https://subtrac.sara.nl/oss/pxeconfig/wiki/PxeInstallation and created the Debian package. I installed the package on Ubuntu lucid.

The entry in /etc/services created by the postinst script was wrong:

-e pxeconfigd 6611/tcp # pxe config daemon

This problem results from variations of the echo commands integrated in different shells.

One option to work around this problem is to call some echo commands and check the output to determine the correct syntax. (Done by Autoconf configure scripts.)

I fixed the problem by calling /bin/echo instead of echo. See attached patch.
