Ok, I was able to create a package from the source code via dpkg-buildpackage. It compiled. But!!! - I still have a mime type to associate, - an icon to add, - a shortcut also, - and my binary is still not copied in /usr/bin. The Makefile was created with QT creator and I wasn't able to modify $(DESTDIR). I need to know how to move files just next the build, so that the icon, shortcut and my binary will be at the right place in the package. Concerning the mime type I am reading the documentation of dh_installmime. I thank all of you who invite me to read documents on internet, but while I'm motivated to success, the task is pretty hard. Maybe I'm not beginning with the easiest package. @Raúl: no particular reason not to use dpkg-buildpackage, it's just that with 1 command dpkg-deb did the job! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
