Debian Packaging
Create a directory to be used for packaging. The rest of the commands assume you are in that directory.
mkdir packaging cd packaging
Clone the repository and switch to the release tag:
git clone git://github.com/sirikata/sirikata.git sirikata-0.0.18 cd sirikata-0.0.18 git checkout v0.0.18
Now edit the changelog file to add a new section:
dch --newversion 0.0.18-0ubuntu1
Now go back up a directory and create the "orig" tar file that debian requires (note _ instead of -, it matters):
tar -cvzf sirikata_0.0.18.orig.tar.gz sirikata-0.0.18
