HOWTO APT-BUILD in webmin software module

[alecuba16]

Hello i modified my webmin software packages module to do apt-build instead apt-get

You have to change 4 lines:

in /usr/share/webmin/software/apt-lib.pl
from

$apt_get_command = $config{'apt_mode'} ? "aptitude" :"apt-get";
to

$apt_get_command = $config{'apt_mode'} ? "aptitude" :"apt-build";

in /usr/share/webmin/software/apt-lib.pl
from

local $cmd = $apt_get_command eq "apt-get" ?
to

local $cmd = $apt_get_command eq "apt-build" ?

in /usr/share/webmin/software/apt-lib.pl
from

my $cmd = "apt-get -s install ".

to

my $cmd = "apt-build -s install ".

in /usr/share/webmin/software/software-lib.pl
from

if (&has_command($config{'apt_mode'} ? "aptitude" : "apt-get")) {

to

if (&has_command($config{'apt_mode'} ? "aptitude" : "apt-build")) {


in /usr/share/webmin/software/apt_upgrade.cgi
from


if ($in{'mode'}) {
$opts = $in{'sim'} ? "-s -y -f" : "-y -f";
$cmd = $in{'mode'} == 2 ? "dist-upgrade" :
$apt_get_command =~ /aptitude/ ? "safe-upgrade" : "upgrade";
print "<b>",&text($in{'sim'} ? 'apt_upgradedescsim' : 'apt_upgradedesc', "<tt>$apt$
print "<pre>";
&additional_log("exec", undef, "$apt_get_command $opts $cmd");
&clean_environment();
open(CMD, "$apt_get_command $opts $cmd 2>&1 </dev/null |");


to



if ($in{'mode'}) {
$opts = $in{'sim'} ? "-s -y -f" : "-y -f";
$cmd = $in{'mode'} == 2 ? "dist-upgrade" :
$apt_get_command =~ /aptitude/ ? "safe-upgrade" : "upgrade";
print "<b>",&text($in{'sim'} ? 'apt_upgradedescsim' : 'apt_upgradedesc', "<tt>$apt$
print "<pre>";
if($cmd == "dist-upgrade")
{
&additional_log("exec", undef, "apt-get $opts $cmd");
&clean_environment();
open(CMD, "apt-get $opts $cmd 2>&1 </dev/null |");
}
else{
&additional_log("exec", undef, "$apt_get_command $opts $cmd");
&clean_environment();
open(CMD, "$apt_get_command $opts $cmd 2>&1 </dev/null |");
}


This last modification is for do dist-upgrade with apt-get because apt-build don't have this option.

Now you have support to compile (build) packages from webmin and not to break or reemplace with apt-get.
