He can build the deb file, if dpkg-buildpackage is available (by using
it) ... and can't build it yet on a nit (i will do it, as i ve do it
with PyPackager). I ve tryed to install dpkg-buildpackage on a nit ...
but due to busybox i get too many errors ... bad signal 's' ... and
many things like that.
pre/post install/remove script isn't yet supported ... but will be in
a few days.
