Hi,
In the past I used Gentoo to develop software and create packages. I
used Debian and Ubuntu only as from the users point of view. I've never
created any packages for Ubuntu. Now I tried it the first time for a
software where I'm the linux maintainer and developer:
http://www.makehuman.org/
The Gentoo package creation isn't a problem. Currently there's not yet a
source package released. So I work with the CVS checkout. I followed
these docs:
http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Paketbau
http://www.linux-magazin.de/Artikel/ausgabe/2002/11/pakete/pakete.html
(both german!)
What I got as result is this:
drwxr-xr-x 9 andreas andreas 1,4K 2006-11-06 22:47 animorph-0.2
-rw-r--r-- 1 andreas andreas 7,7K 2006-11-06 22:46 animorph_0.2-1.diff.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 andreas andreas 350 2006-11-06 22:46 animorph_0.2-1.dsc

-rw-r--r-- 1 andreas andreas 4,4M 2006-11-06 22:46 animorph_0.2.orig.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 andreas andreas 1,4K 2006-11-06 22:47 animorph1_0.2-1_i386.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 andreas andreas 2,1K 2006-11-06 22:47 animorph-dev_0.2-1_i386.deb
The deb files are a little small. If I look into the deb, only the docs are
included.
1. Which information should I provide that someone is able to help me?
2. Is there anyone who think MakeHuman is a cool app and like to maintain the Ubuntu packages? :-)
regards
Andreas
