I'm sorry to be so stupid, but i did follow this "howto" : http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/...d_Distributing .

The problem is i do not want to package the sources ( all is really messy, with makefile edited by hand etc .. ) i just want to package the actual release. But this howto assume we are making a packages with sources :

Code:

[sbox-FREMANTLE_ARMEL: ~/wesnoth-1.6.5/wesnoth-1.6.5-1] > dh_make -e cpasjuste@gmail.com

Type of package: single binary, multiple binary, library, kernel module or cdbs?
 [s/m/l/k/b] s

Maintainer name : unknown
Email-Address   : cpasjuste@gmail.com 
Date            : Tue,  9 Feb 2010 09:33:27 +0100
Package Name    : wesnoth-1.6.5
Version         : 1
License         : blank
Type of Package : Single
Hit <enter> to confirm: 
Could not find wesnoth-1.6.5_1.orig.tar.gz
Either specify an alternate file to use with -f,
or add --createorig to create one.

Hit <enter> to confirm: 
Currently there is no top level Makefile. This may require additional tuning.
Done. Please edit the files in the debian/ subdirectory now. You should also
check that the wesnoth-1.6.5 Makefiles install into $DESTDIR and not in / .

I'm a little lazy about that stuff

Some help to make a simple .deb for a release would be great since i can't find something like that in the docs ..
