Originally created by @d8ahazard on GitHub (Nov 4, 2021).

So, I see a definition for "AdditionalDependencies" in the debpackage builder...but having some trouble getting it to work.

Is it possible to provide an example of how to add a list of extra app dependencies?

Also, is there an option to add another repository before trying to install said depndencies?

Here's how you can define additional dependencies for Deb and RPM packages:

  <ItemGroup>
    <DebDependency Include="libgdiplus (&gt;= 5.6)" />
    <RpmDependency Include="libgdiplus0" Version="5.6" />
  </ItemGroup>

@aaronegger Do you have a sample project you can share? What's the exact error message? Are you sure you added the DebDependency/RpmDependency elements inside an ItemGroup element (and not inside a PropertyGroup)?

Damn i see you were faster...
I tried to delete it before you read it, because i just found out that is indeed because i had it in an property group..

This leads to a question that may similar to this.
I read somewhere that i can supply the installscripts by setting a path.
But this haven't worked for me yet.
Should this also be within a subnode?

Currently i use it like that:
< PreRemoveScript >
< ![CDATA[
...
]] >
< /PreRemoveScript >
