Now there is a great effort to port Debian GNU/Linux packages to GNU/Hurd.
So get whatever packages you want from Debian GNU/Linux and try to compile
them on Hurd. The most often error in packages is that they fix the maximal
length of path name. Search in the mailing list how to handle that.
Developing Debian packages is described in www.debian.org. There is a link
to mailing list archives too (search debian-hurd).
