13.10.2 Packaging with tools
Use dh_make from the dh-make package to create a
baseline package. Then, proceed according to instructions in
dh-make(1). This uses debhelper in
debian/rules.
An older approach is to use deb-make from the debmake
package. This uses no debhelper scripts and depends only on the
shell. Do not use this any more.
For examples of multiple-source packages, see "mc" (dpkg-source
-x mc_4.5.54.dsc), which uses "sys-build.mk" by Adam Heath
(
[email protected]), and
"glibc" (dpkg-source -x glibc_2.2.4-1.dsc), which uses
another system by the late Joel Klecker ([email protected]).
