Create a dir called Helloworld...(ensure that the name of the dir is the name of the pkg 'minus' tar.gz (This is how it should be...)

3. The use dh-make to start off creating a pkg...
the command is dh_make
These are very basic steps that you need to know to start it off.. a good guide can be found here, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete If any pro can advice you better pls take it..But Im very sure these are the basic steps.. You can learn more about packaging from that link....PS: From one newbie to another... Best way= dive first then you will learn how to swim... Cheers...
