IMHO, you would have more volunteers if there was a comprehensive "how to"
manual on the creation of *.deb packages. Right now, one has a bunch of files
to "grog" through ranging from FSSTND stuff to sample debian.* . If you happen
to be a master programmer with loads of time, that arrangement undoubtably is
ok. While I consider myself a competant programmer, I find that "mess" very
intimidating. I have several programs which I'd like to create a *.deb for,
but most likely, they'll never see the light of day. Maybe one of the experts
would like to start a "how to" for guys like me. 8-)
