Loic Dachary 06593813af documentation: replace deps.{deb,rpm}.txt with scripts
install-deps.sh installs the dependencies based on the content of
debian/control (if apt-get is found) or ceph.spec.in (if yum is
found). The manually maintained list of dependencies for deb based
operating systems (deps.deb.txt) and rpm based operating
systems (deps.rpm.txt) are deprecated.

Build Ceph
============
You can get Ceph software by retrieving Ceph source code and building it yourself.
To build Ceph, you need to set up a development environment, compile Ceph,
and then either install in user space or build packages and install the packages.
Build Prerequisites
===================
.. tip:: Check this section to see if there are specific prerequisites for your
Linux/Unix distribution.
Before you can build Ceph source code, you need to install several libraries
and tools::
./install-deps.sh
.. note:: Some distributions that support Google's memory profiler tool may use
a different package name (e.g., ``libgoogle-perftools4``).
Build Ceph
==========
Ceph provides ``automake`` and ``configure`` scripts to streamline the build
process. To build Ceph, navigate to your cloned Ceph repository and execute the
following::
cd ceph
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
.. topic:: Hyperthreading
You can use ``make -j`` to execute multiple jobs depending upon your system. For
example, ``make -j4`` for a dual core processor may build faster.
See `Installing a Build`_ to install a build in user space.
Build Ceph Packages
===================
To build packages, you must clone the `Ceph`_ repository. You can create
installation packages from the latest code using ``dpkg-buildpackage`` for
Debian/Ubuntu or ``rpmbuild`` for the RPM Package Manager.
.. tip:: When building on a multi-core CPU, use the ``-j`` and the number of
cores * 2. For example, use ``-j4`` for a dual-core processor to accelerate
the build.
Advanced Package Tool (APT)
---------------------------
To create ``.deb`` packages for Debian/Ubuntu, ensure that you have cloned the
`Ceph`_ repository, installed the `Build Prerequisites`_ and installed
``debhelper``::
sudo apt-get install debhelper
Once you have installed debhelper, you can build the packages::
sudo dpkg-buildpackage
For multi-processor CPUs use the ``-j`` option to accelerate the build.
RPM Package Manager
-------------------
To create ``.rpm`` packages, ensure that you have cloned the `Ceph`_ repository,
installed the `Build Prerequisites`_ and installed ``rpm-build`` and
``rpmdevtools``::
yum install rpm-build rpmdevtools
Once you have installed the tools, setup an RPM compilation environment::
rpmdev-setuptree
Fetch the source tarball for the RPM compilation environment::
wget -P ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/ http://ceph.com/download/ceph-<version>.tar.bz2
Or from the EU mirror::
wget -P ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/ http://eu.ceph.com/download/ceph-<version>.tar.bz2
Extract the specfile::
tar --strip-components=1 -C ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/ --no-anchored -xvjf ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/ceph-<version>.tar.bz2 "ceph.spec"
Build the RPM packages::
rpmbuild -ba ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/ceph.spec
For multi-processor CPUs use the ``-j`` option to accelerate the build.
