Just wanted to inform that Stskeeps updated the master template for PR1.2 today and it so far it seems to be working just nice
http://gitorious.org/hildon-theme-ex...s/trees/master
and there easily shared by just uploading the 'theme' folder, but i am interested in making them as installable debs instead,
was hoping this thread was an 'idiots' [guide] like the ones i posted here:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=51502
i know its just a case of us linux n00bs reading/studying all the 'kindly' provided links, but its sooooo painfull for my braincells to get to grips with 'linux/terminal mumble jumble'!
surely an idiots guide explaining everything in detail, with screenshots, step by step, would benefit everyone
(and i mean a REAL idiots guide!)

I never had used Linux before (if you don't count N900). But I still survived to set up a SDK that could build debs inside Ubuntu (running on virtual machine under Win 7). I must admit that it's pretty complicated and hard for noobs to get everything up and running :/
But I know it's possible to create debs inside N900 if you have your edited theme working in it. Can't just remember what was the name of the program @ devel repo.

I would like to make a Maemo 5 Hildon theme.
I have taken beta theme (Digital Nature), renamed it to gamma (in index.theme), changed something with colors and want to turn it into deb (just to test what it looks like).
I created folder structure:
deb/usr/share/themes/gamma/index.theme, colors.config, backgrounds/, images/, others
deb/DEBIAN/control and three other files
I run in X Terminal
dpkg-deb -b deb
I get error
tar: unknown option "--format=GNU"
What should I do about it?

I've been away from computer for some time. Now I have read your
message, reinstalled dpkg-dev and tried to run your command (instead
of fakeroot I use sudo gainroot from rootsh). Here are errors from it:
parsechangelog/debian: warnings: badly formatted heading line; found
eof where expected first heading
changelog is created by hand and contains one line
gamma(0.1)
where gamma is theme name (the same as in control and index.theme) and
0.1 is version (the same as in control).
I would be thankful for any help with this file
dpkg-buildpackage: error: unable to determine source package
If it's caused only by changelog, go ahead. I just don't know what to
write in changelog file. I'm able to edit it in vi.
Best regards.

Seriously, I think it's imagemagic you're missing or you have some weird version of it. Can you run this and see if you find package that includes imagemagic (in scratchbox):
apt-get update
apt-cache search imagemagic
