    Approx is a caching proxy server for Debian archive files. It is an HTTP based proxy server for Debian style package archives. It fetches files from remote repositories on demand, and caches them for local use. Approx saves time and network bandwidth if you need to install or upgrade .deb packages for a number of machines on a local network. Each package is downloaded from a remote site only once, regardless of how many local clients install it. The approx cache typically requires a few gigabytes of disk space. Approx also simplifies the administration of client machines repository locations need only be changed in approx s configuration file, not in every client s etc apt sources.list file. Approx can be used as a replacement for apt proxy, with no need to modify clients etc apt sources.list files, or as an alternative to apt cacher. ref Debian site http packages.debian.org sid approx ref References reflist Category Debian ...   more details

  1. Preseed

    Preseeding is a method for automating the installation of the Debian GNU Linux operating system and its derivatives. Answers to installation questions, which would normally be answered interactively by an operator, are predetermined and supplied via a configuration file and sometimes boot parameters . This is similar to unattended installations of Windows operating systems using an answer file see Installation computer programs . Many Debian based operating systems support preseed, because it is a feature of the Debian Installer also known as d i . For instance, although Ubuntu operating system Ubuntu is commonly installed via the user friendly Ubiquity software Ubiquity installer, preseeding the d i is the recommended method for automating Ubuntu installations ref cite web url https help.ubuntu.com 8.04 installation guide powerpc appendix preseed.html title Automating the installation using preseeding publisher Ubuntu documentation team accessdate 2009 11 20 ref and for customizing install CDs ref cite web url https help.ubuntu.com community InstallCDCustomization title InstallCDCustomization publisher Ubuntu documentation team accessdate 2009 11 20 ref .

  1. Debhelper

    lowercase debhelper is a suite of programs originally written by Joey Hess that help a Debian packager write rules files. A rules file is a makefile that contains instructions for building and creating a Debian package. Overview There are many tasks that need to be performed over and over again in the rules files. Instead of cutting and pasting code to do these tasks, debhelper allows a packager to simply call one of its 58 programs ref http git.debian.org ?p debhelper debhelper.git a tree h refs heads master hb master ref to do the task for them. debhelper can greatly simplify things. Debian includes packages of GNU hello made both with and without debhelper as examples for packagers. The rules file that does not use debhelper is 2,174 characters. In contrast, the version that uses debhelper is 783 characters. Version 7 of debhelper introduced the code dh code helper, which can significantly simplify rules files for common cases. A debhelper 7 powered rules file can be as short as 3 lines, or 29 characters ref http kitenet.net joey blog entry cdbs killer 40 design phase 41 ref usr bin make f dh dh make Related to debhelper, there is also a tool called dh make . dh make copies templates of all of the files needed to build a debian package to the source directory of a program. These templates are customized slightly based on information that the user gives and on a cursory examination of how the source code is built. After running dh make, a developer still has to edit most of the template files to be able to build the package. Although closely related to it, dh make is not part of debhelper it was separately developed by Craig Small . See also CDBS builds on debhelper to allow a user to write even shorter rules files.

Historically, scrolling text verbose mode has typically appeared on Linux computers during boot. Usplash replaces the scrolling text screens with a graphical splash screen . It was designed to replace Bootsplash , which did the same thing on the User space kernel space level. Since usplash operates in user space , it can be updated without recompiling the kernel. Usplash uses the Linux framebuffer interface or, alternatively, direct VESA access to display the splash screen. In Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala , Usplash is only used in the preliminary stages of booting, after which XSplash takes over. In Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx , Usplash has been fully replaced by Plymouth software Plymouth .
