I have some debs that I am converting from rpms but they
don't quite do what I want. Moreover, I would like to use
a tool like checkinstall (http://asic-linux.com.mx/~izto/checkinstall/)
in creating some initial deb packages that I might later want to
tweak.  Any thoughts? References
I should be reading?
