I have a couple of scripts and a zenity-based GUI that I wanted to package as a deb. As per various tutorials, i have arranged the files into folders, created control and the .desktop files.

I only have a WIN7 computer so I want to do my packaging in my N900. I tried packaging with

Code:

dpkg-i xxxx

in MyDocs but I got errors as it was FAT32.

Next I moved it to /opt/debuild/ and tried to package from there. It successfully compiled but
a) I could not install via HAM (application not compatible error, i think)
b) I installed successfully via dpkg -i, and it became visible in the menu. But I could not run it.

So please, could somebody tell me what I am doing wrong? Oh, and I want to run my scripts as root, so i did put this as my exec in the .desktop file:

Code:

sudo /usr/bin/run-standalone.sh /pathto/myscript.sh

Is this right?
