Re: make a deb package
If I understand your problem you want to create a package to hold a font
collection.
Then what I would try is something like:
Create a tree like this one :
fontcollection/
fontcollection/debian/
fontcollection/debian/rules
fontcollection/debian/control
fontcollection/debian/changelog
fontcollection/font1.fontextension
fontcollection/font2.fontextension
fontcollection/font3.fontextension
read the new developpers guide to see what is in rules/control/changelog.
in the rules, you need just to add some 'cp' in the rules to build the
install target.
install:
cp font*.fontextension `pwd`/debian/fontcollection/##PATH##/
then you can:
in fontcollection/
# dpkg-buildpackages -rfakeroot
and you should get something like fontcollection*.deb
