-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is there a document describing software packaging good practices for general use, not specific to Debian, preferably in electronic form?
Debian discourages creating Debian-native packages: "This type of packaging is only appropriate for the debian-specific packages, which will never be useful in another distribution." [1] But creating it for other distributions requires some knowledge of what those other distributions expect of a package. The current interest here is primarily in packages consisting of shell scripts, as opposed to compilable code, but presumably the question arises in either case. -- [1] /usr/share/doc/maint-guide/maint-guide.en.txt.gz -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.5.6 <http://mailcrypt.sourceforge.net/> iD8DBQFEEJhRDkU5rhlDCl4RAh1xAJ471EZlxIW2x33VajxdeeZL0xXqEQCdHimL G2Mtgjp4TEjmVTZNwDTdmBI= =yND9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
