Re: Re: howto for compiling of deb packages
Quick Method....Will not work for all...
apt-get install debhelper debmake fakeroot dh-make devscripts
1) Unpack the source
2) Ensure the directory name has a version number
3) Enter the directory
4) Type "deb-make"
5) Type "debuild"
6) If the above fails, read the docs on deb-make, debuild, debhelper...

Just use dpkg-buildpackage
apt-get source <whatever package you want>
cd <directory of package>
fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage
and you'll get debs in the parent directory
or
it will barf that it needs some packages instealled first..
That's it (or at least should be unless the source it broken)
