Oh no, it will not work. When testing my tar.gz packages I used my user id to both build and test.
The tar.gz install script was setting the /usr/lib/mseide-msegui owner:group to root:root. But the apps and lib folders were getting my user:group setting (from when created) and not root. And that is why it worked. As the .deb package install (and the tar.gz should do the same) sets the owner:group to root:root the compiler cannot write to the /usr/lib/mseide-msegui/lib/... folder. Do I set the permissions to 777 on the lib folder and sub folders? That doesn't seem to be a good idea. What about a mseide group? How do I ensure the current user is a member of that gruop? what about other users? If the compiler is going to try to recompile anything in the lib/common/... path this approach will not work. So now what. Both the tar.gz and .deb packages approach I was taking will not work this way. Anyone have more experience with setting up packages.
