Apertium packages depends on hfst, cg3 libraries. These libraries often need update, while core packages are updated less frequently. bin-NMU is needed to avoid entire rebuild (and version bump) and quick upload.
Steps[edit]
1. Increment version
dch --bin-nmu
2. Update dependencies in debian/control.
3. Rebuild package.
Alternative[edit]
If cowbuilder environment is not setup,
sudo cowbuilder create
Build the binary package,
sudo cowbuilder --bin-nmu "bin-NMU for library update" --build previous-package_version.dsc
ToDo[edit]
- Document bin-NMU + gbp buildpackage.
- Fix errors with cowbuilder.
