Hi, I've found very spotty documentation on packages, mostly here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/HandsOn The problem with these tutorals - and there are several - is that they don't take into account the differences in what you're trying to package. I'm trying to create a "polipo-tor" package which depends on both polipo and tor being installed already. All it does is install some config files and set up /var/run/polipo-tor and /var/log/polipo-tor. I'm trying to package it as an architecture-independent package. Here is the contents via lesspipe: new debian package, version 2.0. size 9714 bytes: control archive= 1552 bytes. 96 bytes, 4 lines conffiles 626 bytes, 16 lines control 285 bytes, 4 lines md5sums 1371 bytes, 53 lines * postinst #!/bin/sh 1153 bytes, 45 lines * postrm #!/bin/sh 278 bytes, 11 lines * prerm #!/bin/sh Package: polipo-tor Version: 1.0-0ubuntu1 Architecture: all Maintainer: Ubuntu MOTU Developers <ubuntu-m...@lists.ubuntu.com> Installed-Size: 52 Depends: polipo, tor, tsocks Section: web Priority: optional Description: Polipo web proxy configured to route through tor This is the polipo-tor package. It installs a new polipo service that listens on port 8124 and forwards all requests through tor. Note that this package makes it easy to route through tor, but it does not try to prevent de-anonymization attacks; those depend on browser configuration.

Or anything in that subdirectory. ANy clues why? Also, I've set up a local repository using the following script: cd /ref/www/packages/ubuntu for b in $(find dists -type d \( -name 'binary*' -o -name 'all' \)) do dpkg-scanpackages $b /dev/null | gzip -9c > $b/Packages.gz done for s in $(find dists -type d -name source) do dpkg-scansources $s | gzip -9c > $s/Sources.gz done However, when I try to "apt-get -y install" a package, it fails because the repo isn't signed somehow. I've already added the key I used to create the packages via "apt-key add" but apparently that's not enough.
