Launchpad itself

Is there an integration for github-only libraries and PPA?

Asked by Ian Leath

I'm trying to build a package but several libraries only offered on github are currently required, examples including cereal and libigl. Is there any way for me to pull them and build them so that the system can use them?

Package builds on Launchpad aren't permitted to talk to the internet. You have to either package the libraries in question and build-depend on them, or else embed them in your source package (the former is usually better).

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask Ian Leath for more information if necessary.
