If anyone is interested, I wrote a quick and dirty utility to create debian (deb) deployment packages for Lazarus applications (any really):
http://cache.getlazarus.org/images/makedeb-screen.png Features: * Creates deb files for deploying your applications to Debian distros (Mint, Ubuntu, ect) * Automatically finds dependencies for you * Automatically detects application architecture * Includes your executable and pixmap as well as creating an app desktop file (app shortcut in /usr/local/share/application) * Stores each applications settings in files which you can reuse (make changes and redeploy) If enough people are interested in this kind of app, let me know, because I would spend a little extra time to make it a bit friendlier (file associations, deployment save to folder, license file support, and desktop actions). Note: If anyone is familiar with deb files, how do you normally create the dependencies section of the deb control file? I want to make sure my programmatic method to find them isn't overkill.
