# Footman This gem is still growing. ## Installation Depends upon having reprepro tool installed (if debian based) or createrepo installed (if red hat based). Ruby 1.9.+ is required to use this gem. 'createrepo' (rpm) tool does not require any pre-setup to the repository or watched directory. - - - 'reprepro' (deb) tool requires pre-setup. The repository directory for deb files must contain: <pre><code> conf/ conf/distributions conf/options conf/override.precise </code></pre> options file is empty, but needed to make reprepro happy distributions file will contain: <pre><code>Origin: Tyler Label: Tyler's Personal Debs Codename: precise Architectures: i386 amd64 source lpia Components: main Description: Tylers Personal Debian Repository DebOverride: override.precise DscOverride: override.precise Origin: Tyler Label: Tyler's Personal Debs Codename: lenny Architectures: i386 amd64 source lpia Components: main Description: Tylers Personal Debian Repository DebOverride: override.lenny DscOverride: override.lenny </code></pre> Note that the code name is for each distribution repository you support. for each distribtuion repository you support there must be an override file. override file can be left empty, footman will fill it out when a new package is added.
