Re: Alternative ways of creating a debian source package in Qt Creator
 
First of all thanks for the help.
I spent a pair of hours working on the project, following your pattern I could (I honestly do not know how) to get the three files needed to upload (.tar.gz, .changes and .dsc), but I can not try because extras assistant is offline.
For the moment I can say that I was not able to use the wizard to complete the upload .. If you will go wrong, go back to the old version.
I will try tomorrow, Wish me good luck :D

Good luck! :)

It's true, this Debian packaging system seems more complex than it really needs to be (or, perhaps, it just isn't described well enough anywhere). Honestly, you can get it to work with enough effort, it just takes a lot of time invested to figure out what it is trying to do...

Ok, now my new package is on extras...
The problem is, when I install my package by repository, the output is:
E: handler silently failed
Why? :confused:

Thanks for everything really :D
P.s. I have upload the 3 file with maemo extras assistant

Ah, there's always something more to do, otherwise coding wouldn't be any fun. :) I haven't heard of this particular error before, so I won't be of much help here. Give us an update when you solve it!

Same issue here.

I copied the debian file created by the debug build to the main directory, then pointed the working directory of the "Qt Funk Custom Step" to this directory.

The tar.gz now contains the full source and amazingly I have a appilcation execpted by autobuilder. :)

Thanks for the help Copernicus.
