Create a new image from scratch

    unzip 2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.zip

Prepare the base image

It will be used for the build environment and the final image.

    IMAGE='2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img'
  • Chroot in the image
    sudo ./proper_chroot.sh
  • Change your user to root (your global variables may be broken)
    su root
  • The locales may be broken, fix it (remove en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8, set en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8):
    dpkg-reconfigure locales
  • In the image, make sure everything is up-to-date, and remove the old packages
    apt-get update
    apt-get dist-upgrade
    apt-get autoremove

Setup two images

  • Create two separate images: one will be used to build the deb packages that are not available in wheezy
    mv 2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img BUILDENV_2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img
    cp BUILDENV_2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img FINAL_2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img

Build environment specifics

  • Create a symlink to the build image
    ln -s  BUILDENV_2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img 2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img
  • Chroot in the image
    sudo ./proper_chroot.sh
  • Change your user to root (your global variables may be broken)
    su root
  • Add Wheezy backports source packages to build a poppler version compatible with pdf2htmlEX
    echo 'deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-backports main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
    gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key  8B48AD6246925553
    gpg -a --export 8B48AD6246925553 | sudo apt-key add -
    apt-get update
  • Get the required build dependencies and the sources
    apt-get build-dep poppler
    apt-get source poppler
  • Compile the package
    cd poppler-<VERSION>/
    dpkg-buildpackage
  • Install the packages required by pdf2htmlEX
    apt-get install cmake libfontforge-dev libspiro-dev python-dev default-jre-headless
    cd ..
    dpkg -i libpoppler-dev* libpoppler* libpoppler-private-dev*
  • Download the sources of pdf2htmlEX (we cannot use anything newer than v0.11 because fontforge>=2.0 is not available)
    wget https://github.com/Rafiot/pdf2htmlEX/archive/KittenGroomer.zip
    unzip KittenGroomer.zip
  • Compile the package
    cd pdf2htmlEX-KittenGroomer/
    dpkg-buildpackage -uc -b
  • Get the packages out of the building image (run it outside of the chroot)
    cp /mnt/arm_rPi/libpoppler46_* /mnt/arm_rPi/pdf2htmlex_* deb/

Final image specifics

  • Change the link to the image
   rm 2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img
   ln -s FINAL_2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img 2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img
  • Chroot in the image
    sudo ./proper_chroot.sh
  • Change your user to root (your global variables may be broken)
    su root
  • Copy the debian packages into the chroot (run it outside of the chroot)
    cp deb/*.deb /mnt/arm_rPi/
  • Install repencencies required by the project
    apt-get install libreoffice p7zip-full libfontforge1 timidity freepats pmount ntfs-3g unoconv python-pip
    dpkg -i *.deb
    pip install twiggy python-magic
  • Create the user, make Libreoffice and mtab working on a RO filesystem
    useradd -m kitten
    pushd /home/kitten
    ln -s /tmp/libreoffice
    mkdir .config/
    ln -s /tmp/libreoffice_config .config/libreoffice
    popd
    chown -R kitten:kitten /home/kitten
    ln -s /proc/mounts /etc/mtab
  • Copy the script to the image
    sudo ./copy_to_final.sh

Write the image on a SD card

WARNING: Make sure you write on the right filesystem

    sudo dd bs=4M if=FINAL_2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img of=/dev/<FILESYSTEM>

Run the tests

Make sure to set the filename of the image in tests/run.sh

    sudo ./run_tests.sh
