Hi, agama! Don't forsake me this time! I know I need to learn C, but what you said to me is like speaking in greek! I'm wrestling with a broken binary which is called by initramfs, I tried doing a gpkg-divert on the binary and calling it from a shell script. Something like:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

file=/tmp/filename
if [ -f $file ]; then
    rm -f $file
    exit 0
else
    $0.debian $@ # the name of the diverted binary
fi

Now, the binary is called in the beginning of boot, and it tells: /sbin/binary.debian: not found (while the binary is there...) The script works flawlessly, but fails when called by initramfs.

So I found that I should include this piece of code in the C source, but I don't understand a single piece of code in C and I'm in a big hurry.

I even feel like developing some tools in C (which is IMO the best language - powerful and lightweight), but it's too much for me in such a hurry.

Thanks!

mh_lspoms

MAVEN(1)							   User Commands							  MAVEN(1)

NAME

       Maven - manual page for Maven Repo Helper version 1.7.1

SYNOPSIS

       mh_lspoms [option]... <package>

DESCRIPTION

       Looks for all POM files defined in the source of the project.

       Where

	      <package> is the name of the binary package,

	      e.g. libcommons-lang-java. Default to the first binary found in the debian/control file

OPTIONS

       -h --help: show this text

       -V --version: show the version

       -p<package> --package=<package>: package to act on

       -f --force: force run even if the .poms files exist.

	      Only maven.rules will be created, assuming that it did not exist before.

       -n --non-interactive: non interactive session, don't ask questions.

       -o --offline: don't ever connect to the internet, for Debian build

	      compatibility.

       You  need  to  execute it on the unpacked origial source tree, merged with the debian/ folder. It will create the file debian/<binary pack-
       age>.poms which contains all the POMs to deploy to the Maven repository and is used by mh_installpoms.

   The contents of debian/<binary package>.poms should be:
	      * one POM file location per line, * optionally, the location is followed by the option --no-parent

	      to indicate that if this POM inherits from a parent, the parent element will be removed.
