I still cannot get the symbolic links created inside the .deb package. I can of course manually place the .desktop file also in the /etc/others-menu/extra_applications, but still it would be nice if the package.links file would work. Could this be caused by old dpkg-deb version or something? The uitest.links file that I've created is inside .deb package when i decompress the package with "ar x". The links file looks like this....
/var/lib/install/usr/share/applications/hildon/uitest.desktop /etc/others-menu/extra_applications/uitest.desktop
Here is the contents of the package uitest-0.0.1.deb...
[sbox-SDK_ARM: ~/UITest] > dpkg-deb --build uitest-0.0.1
dpkg-deb: building package `uitest' in `uitest-0.0.1.deb'.
[sbox-SDK_ARM: ~/UITest] > dpkg -c uitest-0.0.1.deb

localhost$ dpkg
zsh: command not found: dpkg
zsh: exit 127 dpkg

Anyway, good point, on debian and/or scratchbox environment that is
an option.
