History

Joey Hess 86783dc52d Make propellor resistent to changes to shared libraries, such as libffi * Make propellor resistent to changes to shared libraries, such as libffi, which might render the propellor binary unable to run. This is dealt with by checking the binary both when running propellor on a remote host, and by Cron.runPropellor. If the binary doesn't work, it will be rebuilt. * Note that since a new switch had to be added to allow testing the binary, upgrading to this version will cause a rebuild from scratch of propellor.		2015-04-02 10:20:44 -04:00

README.Debian

The Debian package of propellor ships its full source code because
propellor is configured by rebuilding it, and embraces modification of any
of the source code.

/usr/bin/propellor is a wrapper which will set up a propellor git
repository in ~/.propellor/, and run ~/.propellor/propellor if it exists.
Edit ~/.propellor/config.hs to configure it.

Note that upgrading the propellor package will not update your
~/.propellor/ repository. This is because you may have local changes
to the source, or may need to adapt your config.hs to work with the new
version of propellor. Instead, if your ~/.propellor/ is from an older
version of propellor, /usr/bin/propellor will warn that it's out of date,
and tell you how to merge in the changes.
