i3blocks-debian

This repository contains the source to build a Debian package for i3blocks.

The i3blocks Debian package hasn't been update recently which is a shame considering v1.5 is compatible with i3-gaps. As soon as the Debian package is updated this repository can be archived.

Usage

If you have Docker installed locally, just run the following:

user@hostname$ ./build.sh

By default this will build i3blocks 1.5 on Debian Bookworm.

If you want to customize the build at runtime, use the following:

user@hostname$ ./build.sh -i debian:unstable-slim -v 1.4

Don't forget to update debian/changelog so your package is generated with the correct version.

Release

To publish a new package version to Github, follow these steps:

• update the VERSION variable in build.sh
• add a new entry in debian/changelog
• create a new tag with the Debian package version
