-Ansible Debian Package
-======================
-
-To create an Ansible DEB package:
-
-__Note__: You must run this target as root or set `PBUILDER_BIN='sudo pbuilder'`
-
-```
-apt-get install python-docutils cdbs debootstrap devscripts make pbuilder python-setuptools
-git clone https://github.com/ansible/ansible.git
-cd ansible
-DEB_DIST='xenial trusty precise' make deb
-```
-
-Building in Docker:
-
-```
-git clone https://github.com/ansible/ansible.git
-cd ansible
-docker build -t ansible-deb-builder -f packaging/debian/Dockerfile .
-docker run --privileged -e DEB_DIST='trusty' -v $(pwd):/ansible ansible-deb-builder
-```
-
-The debian package file will be placed in the `deb-build` directory. This can then be added to an APT repository or installed with `dpkg -i <package-file>`.
-
-Note that `dpkg -i` does not resolve dependencies.
-
-To install the Ansible DEB package and resolve dependencies:
-
-```
-dpkg -i <package-file>
-apt-get -fy install
-```
-
-Or, if you are running Debian Stretch (or later) or Ubuntu Xenial (or later):
-
-```
-apt install /path/to/<package-file>
-```

-This portfile installs ansible from the git repository, it will install the
-latest and greatest version of ansible. This portfile does not install the
-required dependencies to run in accelerated mode.
-
-## Installing the stable version of ansible via macports
-
-If you wish to run a stable version of ansible please do the following
-
-First update your macports repo to the latest versions
-
-  $ sudo port sync
-
-Then install ansible
-
-  $ sudo port install ansible
-
-## Installing the devel version of ansible via macports
-
-To use this Portfile to install the development version of ansible one should
-follow the instructions at
-<http://guide.macports.org/#development.local-repositories>
-
-The basic idea is to add the _ansible/packaging/macports_ directory to your
-_/opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf_ file. You should have something similar
-to this at the end of the file
-
-  file:///Users/jtang/develop/ansible/packaging/macports
-  rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports.tar [default]
-
-In the _ansible/packaging/macports_ directory, do this
-
-  $ portindex
-
-Once the index is created the _Portfile_ will override the one in the upstream
-macports repository.
-
-Installing newer development versions should involve an uninstall, clean,
-install process or else the Portfile will need its version number/epoch
-bumped.
