proxmox-datacenter-manager-arm64

Script for building Proxmox Datacenter Manager 1.x for ARM64.

Download pre-built packages

You can find unofficial Debian packages that are created with this script in the Releases section.

With the script you can also download or install all packages of the latest release automatically.

Download and install

./build.sh install or a specific version ./build.sh install=1.1.4

Download only

./build.sh download or a specific version ./build.sh download=1.1.4

For an even easier experience, you can also use the Datacenter Manager Docker container, which is built on top of these same packages.

Build manually

Install build essentials and dependencies

apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
	build-essential curl ca-certificates sudo git lintian fakeroot jq rsync \
	pkg-config libudev-dev libssl-dev libapt-pkg-dev libclang-dev \
	libpam0g-dev libcrypt-dev libacl1-dev libsystemd-dev \
	libfuse3-dev libldap2-dev libzstd-dev \
	zlib1g-dev nettle-dev uuid-dev

Install rustup

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh -s
source ~/.cargo/env

Start build script

./build.sh

The compilation will take about 10 minutes.
After that you can find the finished packages in the folder packages/.

Build using Docker

You can build ARM64 .deb packages using the provided Dockerfile and docker buildx:

docker buildx build -o packages --platform linux/arm64 .

You can also set build arguments for base image and build.sh options:

docker buildx build -o packages --build-arg buildoptions="debug" --build-arg baseimage=debian:trixie-slim --platform linux/arm64 .

Once the Docker build is completed, packages will be copied from the docker build image to a folder named packages in the root folder.

Build using cross compiler

Enable multi arch and install build essentials and dependencies

For cross compiling you need to enable multiarch and install the needed build dependencies for the target architecture. The

dpkg --add-architecture arm64

apt update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
	build-essential crossbuild-essential-arm64 curl ca-certificates sudo git lintian jq rsync \
	pkg-config pkgconf:arm64 libudev-dev:arm64 libssl-dev:arm64 libapt-pkg-dev:arm64 \
	libclang-dev libpam0g-dev:arm64 libcrypt-dev:arm64 libsystemd-dev:arm64 \
	libacl1-dev:arm64 uuid-dev:arm64 libfuse3-dev:arm64 libldap2-dev:arm64 \
	libzstd-dev:arm64 zlib1g-dev:arm64 nettle-dev:arm64 \
	qemu-user qemu-user-binfmt patchelf

Install rustup and add target arch

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh -s
source ~/.cargo/env
rustup target add aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu

Start build script

./build.sh cross

Install packages

Install all generated packages:

sudo apt install ./packages/*.deb

Help section

Debugging

You can add the debug option to redirect the complete build process output also to a file (build.log):

./build.sh debug
