Hi all,

I am teaching my son how to program in c++. We created a project and implemented it that is a tangram puzzle. It is actually very nice. I am the programmer "back in the day" who created the first tangram puzzles on a iMac using objective-c and cocoa, about 20 years ago.

Anyway, we, my son and I, want to publish the thing on Ubuntu Software Centre. I know I have to create a deb package, and I am not a technology idiot and yet I find the task daunting and obfuscated. I am struggling with the logic.

Does the package have to contain source code, in our case it is a qt project? Does a deb package actually build the code and install it on the users system?
Does the package have to contain a makefile?
Does the package have to contain a qmake file?
What is the relationship of bazaar and the deb package?

the example on the web page listed http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/packaging-new-software.html has a config file. Must there be a config file in the package?
