Hi Evangelos
Found also this page
https://coderwall.com/p/urkybq/how-to-create-debian-package-from-source
But I am not getting anywhere.
My tentative package is however extremely simple
It contains 3 files
- the binary (to go into /usr/bin)
- the icon
- the .desktop file
The sources are here : https://github.com/grosjo/tomboy-reborn
How to know the files needed, and is there "tar" or similar software to
create the ".deb" file form a files tree ?
Thank you so much
JM

Hi,
I originally got started with [1 [1]], however you should probably consult the
new
version [2 [2]]. This should hopefully help you figure things out.

I am really sorry to bother you, but I am a bit lost.
I created a .deb file (see
https://github.com/grosjo/tomboy-reborn/tree/master/packages ) so I should now
create a deb-src package, right ?
The wiki page you mentioned does not really explain how to do so. Is there a
simple, step-by-step, process described somewhere ?
THank you so much

package" as the source is in Pascal (using Lazarus
compiler package). Should I include the Pascal source also ? You need to create
a Debian source package that can be built to produce a
Debian binary package.
It doesn't really matter what language is used or what should be contained
in the binary package. The workflow is the same.
