Use Debian Mirror directly for Garden Linux builds

custom_deb_packages.md

Garden Linux Packages are managed via apt. The Garden Linux builder downloads packages usually via the garden linux apt repository repo.gardenlinux.io. However, as a developer you might want to try out debian packages not yet included in the garden linux apt repo.

You have multiple options to get your debian package in your Garden Linux build

  1. Set the BUILD_OPTS="--debian-mirror" developer parameter for your make targets
    • Example: BUILD_OPTS="--debian-mirror" make openstack
    • This allows packages to be included from debian repositories
  2. Create a folder called local_packages/ and place the deb files in that folder
  3. Drop us an issue here what package you require and if it looks good we will add it to the repo.gardenlinux.io
