Created a theme with Theme Maker.
Replaced the images with mine/fixed bugs.
themefolder should include DEBIAN/opt subfolders.Code:dpkg -b themefolder
- create folder on the N900, let's call it "theme"
- copy DEBIAN & opt -folder into folder created in step 1
Now I should have a struckture like this:
/home/user/MyDocs/theme
>> DEBIAN
>> opt
Then shall I browse to /home/user/MyDocs and type this into terminal:
dpkg -b theme
And that's really all? It creates a package that has optified version of theme inside?
Thanks for the help

Okay... I cannot create a .deb-package. I get following error:
dpkg-deb: control directory has bad permission 777 (must be >=0755 and <=0775)
So I tried to CHMOD 775 these:
/home/user/MyDocs/theme
/home/user/MyDocs/theme/DEBIAN
/home/user/MyDocs/theme/opt
But I still get the same error. I'm not sure what control directory is meaning on that error msg. Help?

You can bypass these by fakeroot, although I have no idea how to do that.
I packaged mine in Ubuntu(virtual).

Edit: I successfully managed to package it in Ubuntu. Now.. can I somehow test the package before actually installing it? I don't want to brick my N900 while testing the first-ever-deb-package-made-by-myself :P

Easiest way to make a theme would be to follow this site. Stskeeps is still working on the template package some with the help of a few theme designers including me and its what the lastest maemo-org is done with. It will give you an optified source package when done. More options will be added soon.
