So moving to fakeroot in the CI is all good.
One more change would make the final debian package substantially smaller. In
https://github.com/radareorg/r2ghidra/blob/master/dist/debian/deb.mk
at line 94, changing
cd ${PACKAGE_DIR}/control && tar czvf $@/control.tar.gz *
to
cd ${PACKAGE_DIR}/control && tar cJvf $@/control.tar.gz *
and at line 98, changing
tar cpzvf $@/data.tar.gz *
to
tar cpJvf $@/data.tar.gz *
would change the compression type from gzip
to xz
and make the final package much smaller.
We do the same thing in the parent radare2
in
https://github.com/radareorg/radare2/blob/master/dist/debian/deb_hand.mak
and this would sync things up nicely.
