Packaging shell scripts
Asked by
David D Short
I have successfully packaged some source code in such a way that Launchpad accepts it for inclusion in my PPA, can compile it, and make a .deb available. Yay!
The next step that I want to make is packaging a complicated shell script. I have managed to make a .deb of it on my own machine, including a man page etc, but since it doesn't have the usual "Makefile", "configure" etc, it is not accepted into my PPA.
Could someone please explain what tricks I need to use to get a shell script accepted?
It might be helpful to imagine that we have a script called "clear-ls.sh" that contains nothing but the following:
#!/bin/bash
clear
ls
What would I have do to make Launchpad accept it?
