builds_debs.py busted in 1.1 branch

[m00dawg]

Looks like the build_debs.py package is not working quite right. My first problem was that Sphinx was putting the output in docs/build/man but the script was wanting it in docs/man. It also cannot find the README files. Here's some failure:

I suspect that is because I was building on 10.04 and had to easy_install the updated Sphinx package? I fixed that manually by building the man pages myself and copying them to docs/man and then simply creating a blank README file.

That allowed the DEBs to build, but after install I get:

root@mcp:/home/tim/holland# holland bk transtest

I pushed some changes to have this at least build on debian. I thought I had cleaned that up more but build_debs.py improvements was sitting in a local feature branch.

We do currently require sphinx 1.0 to build the documentation but I plan to push that into a make_release process before we go into beta so we don't make it a pain for packagers (and sphinx 1.0 otherwise makes a lot of things like man page generation and pretty html docs much easier for us). For now I just clipped the documentation out of the build_debs.py script.

The stack trace you saw was just because contrib/debian/ was including the new holland.cli package which was just split off in 1.1. That should be fixed if you pull from my amsterdam tree.

Seem to be working under Ubuntu 10.04 now. Thanks Andy!

Merged updated build_debs.py script here:

https://github.com/holland-backup/holland/tree/f0cd82a413264520960ad22a53083ec24b056737

These build a release tarball first under a virtualenv and then build debs based off that. This should work a little more consistently and maintain the useful sphinx documentation.
