I heard some comments from #Linux #tech YouTubers lately that building #Debian packages was hard, so here's my take.

1) Create a directory laid out how you want the installed files to look. This structure will get mirrored to the system upon install.
2) In the staging folder create a DEBIAN folder with, at minimum, a "control" file in it with fields like app version and such.
3) Run "dpkg-deb --build FOO" where FOO is the name of your staging folder.

Done. Screenshots with captions attached.

How to tell your OSS is ridiculously popular: people aren't 100% sure they _didn't_ embed it, and tack on the software equivalent of "packaged in a facility where peanuts were also present" to the license list.

This watch contains software, so statistically probably contains at least traces of curl.
