For Debian-based distros, just use `dpkg-deb` to bundle your executables into a `deb` and distribute the `deb`. It takes one line to do this.

- smcameron 5y agoIf it's a one liner, send me a patch. BTW, there's a hell of a lot more to package up than just a few executables.
- smcameron 5y agoAlso, there's already debian packaging stuff: https://github.com/smcameron/space-nerds-in-space/tree/master/debian https://github.com/smcameron/space-nerds-in-space/tree/maste... But I'm not really too interested in distributing packages that will just get out of date. "git pull; make" is easier anyway.
- smcameron 5y agoAnd I'm pretty sure that debian stuff is out of date, because I switched from gtk to sdl2 some time ago, but the control file still mentions gtk. But I never use this debian stuff, so I didn't notice until now. Perhaps someone will fix it.
