Package Release

Build distribution packages (deb, rpm) for voxtype releases.

Prerequisites

• fpm - Install with gem install fpm
• rpmbuild - Install with sudo dnf install rpm-build or sudo pacman -S rpm-tools
• Pre-built binaries in releases/${VERSION}/

Quick Package

If binaries already exist:

./scripts/package.sh --skip-build ${VERSION}

Full Build + Package

Build binaries and create packages:

./scripts/package.sh ${VERSION}

Options

Flag	Description
--skip-build	Use existing binaries, don't rebuild
--deb-only	Build only Debian package
--rpm-only	Build only RPM package
--no-validate	Skip package validation
--release N	Set package release number (default: 1)
--arch ARCH	Target architecture: x86_64 or aarch64

Output

Packages are created in releases/${VERSION}/:

• voxtype_${VERSION}-1_amd64.deb
• voxtype-${VERSION}-1.x86_64.rpm

Validation

The script automatically:

1. Validates binaries for CPU instruction contamination
2. Checks deb package structure for duplicate fields
3. Verifies required control file fields

Workflow

1. Build binaries (Docker for AVX2/Vulkan, local for AVX-512)
2. Verify binary versions match expected version
3. Run ./scripts/package.sh --skip-build ${VERSION}
4. Test package installation in a VM or container

Common Issues

Binary not found:

Error: Binary not found: releases/0.4.14/voxtype-0.4.14-linux-x86_64-avx2

Build binaries first or check the version number.

fpm not found:

gem install fpm

Validation failed: Check the specific error. Usually means Docker cache is stale.
