Hello, I am new here. Be gentle. What I would Like to do:
a. create a .deb from a directory of 3rd party paid software. b. be able to install the .deb on debian server. I have looked at all the documentation I could stand about howto go about it, seems rather complicated, and I'm sure it is, however, I would simply like to do a. above. I have gotten as far as created by hand some files, fiddled with dh-make, became interested in debhelper, considering checkinstall, the list goes on,,, as you can see I am confused... Some of the programs are java installed and stem from rpm's or at least built for redhat/centos systems. I am skilled with linux/unix and cmd line in general, and should be able to understand your suggestions, and I am able to install packages no prob, but to do the reverse ya know, I would like some mentoring. Could someone point me in the right direction? got links? something clean, easy and not too complicated for starters to get things rolling.. Got links? Suggestions? all are welcomed... Thanks.
