Re: Creating debian packages
Try...
man deb
and read all the SEE ALSO's too. It's pretty simple really. Maybe disect
a few odd .deb files first to get the lay of the land. Also, I believe
you need to have installed the deb package building tools as well since I
don't believe they are part of the base install.
