Re: Debian package skeleton



Hi!

Maybe you want to look at the packages packaging-tutorial and
hello. You can also download any package and look at the
packaging with apt-get source <package>.

It seems that dh-make can be what you seek also, it does not
configure everything for you though. You will need to configure
and tune the packaging yourself.

There is also the equivs package which creates trivial Debian
packages.

In the different packaging teams there exists several programs
to automate processes, as John says, e.g. Debian Ruby uses
gem2deb, Debian Python uses dh_python2/3 etc. (For Ruby
gems gem2deb actually creates something almost ready for
upload automatically.)

There are also numerous resources for Debian packaging e.g.
