The application packaging developers guide is your friend -

If you want a "quick and dirty" way to create a package, you can use
my gnutopkg script here:
http://icculus.org/~eviltypeguy/pkg/gnutopkg

See this directory for an example of a package I did for vim using it:
http://icculus.org/~eviltypeguy/pkg/

The script is based on Philip brown's work:
