Ansible Debian Package
======================

To create an Ansible DEB package:

    sudo apt-get install python-paramiko python-yaml python-jinja2 python-httplib2 python-setuptools sshpass
    sudo apt-get install cdbs debhelper dpkg-dev git-core reprepro python-support fakeroot asciidoc devscripts
    git clone git://github.com/ansible/ansible.git
    cd ansible
    make deb

The debian package file will be placed in the `../` directory. This can then be added to an APT repository or installed with `dpkg -i <package-file>`.

Note that `dpkg -i` does not resolve dependencies.

To install the Ansible DEB package and resolve dependencies:

    sudo dpkg -i <package-file>
    sudo apt-get -fy install
