Debreate is a utility to aid in creating Debian (.deb) packages. Currently it only supports binary packaging (note that the term "binary package" is used loosely, as such packages can contain scripts & non-code items such as media images, audio, & more) for personal distribution. Plans for using backends such as dh_make & debuild for creating source packages are in the works. But source packaging can be quite different & is a must if you want to get your packages into a distribution's official repositories or a Launchpad Personal Package Archive (PPA). The latter from which Debreate is available.

Features

User Reviews

  • Es un software excelente, me ha servido mucho. Muchas gracias a sus creadores. Lo recomiendo 100%.
  • Nice build my friend
  • thank you for providing this needy tool
  • Great introduction to creating .deb files as apart from a couple of quirks, it makes it very easy. I've used it a lot and come to rely on it. I'm now disappointed because it won't install on Ubuntu MATE 16.04 due to some dependency problem: python wxgtk2.6| python wxgtk2.7| python wxgtk2.8| Update - That was 0.7.10 I'm now on Mint Cinnamon with 0.7.13 which is fine.

  • I needed to replace self.md5 = _md5.MD5() in panbuild.py with self.md5 = _md5.new().
