package advices
Hi Still learning to package... ;-) I would like to make a package that I will install in a set of "servers". Let's call it "admins_ssh_keys" This package is the set of "public keys" of admins in my department. I would like then to install "admins_ssh_keys" then it: a - creates the right users b - copies the public keys into each $USER/.ssh c - modifies sshd_config in a way that c1 - Password acces is disabled c2 - Only auth by Key is enabled d - puts the users in the right group (admin) e - depends on a set of packages usefull for our admins Well... For a, b, c, and d: should it be just a post intallation action? Then when comes the time of "upgrading" this package (adding or removing an admin)...

look for similar source package (kernel module)
Hi, I would like to install kqemu (the qemu accelerator, not the KDE frontend) kernel module. I dont want to install it as is, but I want to install it via the debian packaging system. I never ended my learning of Debian packaging. Would you know a "simple" package of any kernel module, so that I can adapt it to my kqemu package? The licencing of kqemu make it not available through public repositories, but there is no problem if I make my own package.

single binary, multiple binary,...
Hi, I want to learn building Debian package (yeah, it has been for a long now...) and need to get a zope2.9 package. Now, the latest available is just zope2.8-2.8.4. As well as it is not really an upgrade of the package but it brings a name change, I decided to create a new package. Well.. In fact, I will inspire 99% from the "rules" and other staff from the zope2.8 package, and may be the trick will be done by a simple s/2.8/2.9 in the debian directory files. I dont intend to re-invent the wheel. So: single binary? multiple binary? for that package? thank you. AS soon as I build a package without too much error, I will put it into a repo and the mentors and packages developpers will be abble to telle me what's wrong.
