As I beginner, I had more trouble creating a package than I did porting the program I chose. Partially because, although I've used Linux for years, I went the RPM route, so I wasn't familiar with debs.
Luckily, I found pypackager, and lots of help here in the forums!! Thanx to all!!!
It shows how to layout the files for pypackager, and the text for my 3 scripts.
My preinst and postinst scripts use ukki's method for MMC redirection, but I tweaked it a bit to work with a symbolic link and to include the amount of free space on the maemo-confirm-text choice window.
It was too long for the forums, but it's not blogspam or anything. And it's really bland HTML! :-) REALLY BAD!!! :-)
Anyway, hope this helps someone.
I'll try to update the page and add some screenshots later.
