Fair enough. This is the current description of debmake on page 1. This is a higher level set of tools for creating Debian packages. You don't really need it create a package but I recommend it. It makes the whole process tremendously easier especially for beginners. we will be using debmake to create our example package. I'll change it to this: This is a higher level set of tools for creating Debian packages. You don't really need it create a package but I recommend it. It makes the whole process tremendously easier especially for beginners. Some people think it is too inflexible and hides too much from the programmer. We will be using debmake to create our example package but if you find you are running into problems with your own packages because of debmake, use another method instead of trying to shoehorn yourself into the debmake way of doing things.
