Re: Help needed with a script generating a .deb (Done. Now what?)
Hello. So, I succeeded! There are two Warnings left W: dmagnetic: description-synopsis-starts-with-article W: dmagnetic: extra-license-file usr/share/doc/dmagnetic/LICENSE.txt If you do not mind, I would like to keep them. Now that I am able to create packages What do I do with them?

Re: Help needed with a script generating a .deb
Hello all. Thanks to your input, I think I am getting closer. For debian, I created a repository at https://github.com/dettus/ports_and_packages/tree/master/Debian In it, you will find a debian/ subdirectory. In which I put the files that seem to be required for debuild, if I am not mistaken? You will also find a script called "mkpackage.sh". It takes care of downloading the source file from my website, and creating the .dsc file. Running it ends with the following feedback: dpkg-buildpackage: info: full upload (original source is included) Now running lintian... W: dmagnetic: missing-depends-line W: dmagnetic: description-synopsis-starts-with-article W: dmagnetic: spelling-error-in-description allows to allows one to W: dmagnetic: extra-license-file usr/share/doc/dmagnetic/LICENSE.txt W: dmagnetic: manpage-has-errors-from-man usr/share/man/man5/dMagneticini.5.gz 44: warning: macro `RS' not defined W: dmagnetic: menu-item-creates-new-section Games usr/share/menu/dmagnetic:2 Finished running lintian.

We don't use dpkg-deb -b to create packages. If you want to create a package that can be uploaded to Debian, start with https://mentors.debian.net/intro-maintainers -- WBR, wRAR signature.asc Description: PGP signature
Help needed with a script generating a .deb
Hello! So, I have this awesome project, that I am trying to get into the package repository of Debian. I already filed an RFP, which can be found at the WNPP bug tracker, where it is gathering dust. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=929619 So, I tried my hand at creating a package myself. Since I am a very lazy person, I try to script my work whenever possible. So why should there be an exception for the Debian package generation, right? 😉 Anyways, the script that is downloading my project, compiles it, and creates a .deb file can be found attached to this email, but you can also download it at github, at https://github.com/dettus/ports_and_packages/blob/master/Ubuntu/games/dmagnetic/mkpackage.sh (Yes, currently I am sitting at a Ubuntu Machine (At work), but I would still like to see my project become part of Debian) If you could have a look, and tell me what I might have missed, I would very VERY much appreciate it. Oh, my project is located at http://www.dettus.net/dMagnetic, it is called dMagnetic- A Magnetic Scrolls Interpreter, and can be used to play classic text adventures such as "The Guild of Thieves" on modern Hardware in any terminal window.
