A friend of mine has an old Roomba to give away to anyone who wants to
play with it. The battery is old, but the rest works, as far as he can

How does one re-build a .deb package? Where is the equivalent of srpm packages?
What if I want to rebuild a package on a different architecture or
with some minor change?
Thanks!

On my Debian "unstable" box I can say:
man deb

that looks pretty useful, like:
