This project was the packaging code for launchpad builds in the nixnote2 daily PPA.
Since the project maintainer ceased updates after 2017, active development on the project has switched to nixnote21, forked in May 2018. The project you are looking at right now is being moth-balled.
Please see the new project page:
https://github.com/robert7/nixnote2
This project automatically builds Nixnote2 into an Ubuntu PPA, making the upstream https://github.com/baumgarr/nixnote2/ available quickly and easily to users of all Ubuntu-based distributions.
To use the daily builds:
# add the PPA
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:nixnote/nixnote2-daily
sudo apt-get update
# install nixnote2
sudo apt-get install nixnote2
or see more in How to use the PPAs.
This small GitHub code repo contains just the debian build files needed to automatically compile and package the upstream nixnote2 code into Launchpad. If you have issues with using nixnote2, please report them into the upstream nixnote2 issues. Issues on this project are just about the installing and packaging mechanism for Ubuntu and it's derivatives.
Here are the main pages in this nixnote2-packaging wiki...
- How to use the PPAs
- How you could help e.g. Join the package maintainers
- the Launchpad Recipes that control the builds
- Setting things up in Launchpad
- How the debian control files were created
- Background on the main NixNote2 project
- @hosiet has been working hard to get nixnote2 accepted as a candidate package in debian, meaning that it would eventually become available directly in ubuntu repos and many others too. At that stage these daily builds will be needed by a lot less people. In the mean time check out the code for that project's debian files.
Note about README in this code repo: currently we intentionally avoid creating a README file at the front of this code repo, so there is no risk of conflicting with any README in the main code repo.
