Packaging a Qt Application
Looking for a debian package of your Application
If you want to port a popular Qt application probably it is already packaged for debian. You can try to get the package source:
- Adding a debian src repository in your /etc/apt/source.list file
$echo “deb http://ftp.it.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free” >> /etc/apt/source.list $apt-get update $apt-cache search app_name $apt-get source app_name
- Checking http://packages.debian.org, downloading the following files and running dpkg-source -x app_name.dsc to decompress the upstream source and to apply the changes available in the diff.gz file.
- upstream source file (.tar.gz)
- package changes (.diff.gz)
- meta-data information file (.dsc)
