\section{Introduction}

\subsection{Debian}

\begin{frame}{Debian}
	\begin{itemize}
		\item \textbf{GNU/Linux distribution}
			\br
		\item 1st major distro developed ``openly in the spirit of GNU''
			\br
		\item \textbf{Non-commercial}, built collaboratively by over 1,000 volunteers
			\br
		\item 3 main features:
			\begin{itemize}
				\item \textbf{Quality} -- culture of technical excellence\\
					{\small\sl We release when it's ready}
					\hbr
				\item \textbf{Freedom} -- devs and users bound by the \textsl{Social Contract}\\
					Promoting the culture of Free Software since 1993
					\hbr
				\item \textbf{Independence} -- no (single) company babysitting Debian\\
					And open decision-making process (\textsl{do-ocracy} + \textsl{democracy})
			\end{itemize}
                        \br
                \item \textbf{Amateur} in the best sense: done for the love of it
	\end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\subsection{Debian packages}
\begin{frame}{Debian packages}
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{.deb} files (binary packages)
	\br
\item A very powerful and convenient way to distribute software to users
	\br
\item One of the two most common package formats (with RPM)
	\br
\item Universal:
	\begin{itemize}
		\item 30,000 binary packages in Debian\\
			$\rightarrow$ most of the available free software is packaged in Debian!
			\hbr
		\item For 12 ports (architectures), including 2 non-Linux (Hurd; KFreeBSD)
			\hbr
		\item Also used by 120 Debian derivative distributions
	\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}


\subsection{The Deb package format}

\begin{frame}[fragile=singleslide]{The Deb package format}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item \texttt{.deb} file: an \texttt{ar} archive
    \begin{lstlisting}[basicstyle=\ttfamily\footnotesize]
$ ar tv wget_1.12-2.1_i386.deb
rw-r--r-- 0/0      4 Sep  5 15:43 2010 debian-binary
rw-r--r-- 0/0   2403 Sep  5 15:43 2010 control.tar.gz
rw-r--r-- 0/0 751613 Sep  5 15:43 2010 data.tar.gz
    \end{lstlisting} % $
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \texttt{debian-binary}: version of the deb file format, \texttt{"2.0\textbackslash{}n"}
    \item \texttt{control.tar.gz}: metadata about the package\\
      {\small \texttt{\textbf{control}, md5sums, (pre|post)(rm|inst), triggers, shlibs}, \ldots}
    \item \texttt{data.tar.gz}: data files of the package
    \end{itemize}
    \br
  \item You could create your \texttt{.deb} files manually\\
    {\footnotesize \url{http://tldp.org/HOWTO/html\_single/Debian-Binary-Package-Building-HOWTO/}}
    \br
  \item But most people don't do it that way
  \end{itemize}
  \br
  \centerline{\textbf{This tutorial: create Debian packages, the Debian way}}
\end{frame}

\subsection{Tools you will need}
\begin{frame}{Tools you will need}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item A Debian (or Ubuntu) system (with root access)
    \br
  \item Some packages:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \textbf{build-essential}: has dependencies on the packages that will
      be assumed to be available on the developer's machine (no need to specify
      them in the \texttt{Build-Depends:} control field of your package)
      \begin{itemize}
      \item includes a dependency on \textbf{dpkg-dev}, which contains basic
        Debian-specific tools to create packages
      \end{itemize}
      \hbr
    \item \textbf{devscripts}: contains many useful scripts for Debian
      maintainers
    \end{itemize}
  \end{itemize}

  \br
  Many other tools will also be mentioned later, such as \textbf{debhelper},
  \textbf{cdbs}, \textbf{quilt}, \textbf{pbuilder}, \textbf{sbuild},
  \textbf{lintian}, \textbf{svn-buildpackage}, \textbf{git-buildpackage},
  \ldots\\
  Install them when you need them.
\end{frame}

\subsection{Rebuilding dash}
\begin{frame}{Example: rebuilding dash}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Install packages needed to build dash, and devscripts\\
  {\texttt{sudo apt-get build-dep dash}\\ (requires \texttt{deb-src} lines in \texttt{/etc/apt/sources.list})}\\
  {\texttt{sudo apt-get install -{}-no-install-recommends devscripts fakeroot}}
  \hbr
\item Create a working directory, and get in it:\\
 \texttt{mkdir /tmp/debian-tutorial ; cd /tmp/debian-tutorial}
  \hbr
\item Grab the \texttt{dash} source package\\
  \texttt{apt-get source dash}\\ 
  {\small (This needs you to have \texttt{deb-src} lines in your \texttt{/etc/apt/sources.list})}
  \hbr
\item Build the package\\
  {\texttt{cd dash-*\\ debuild -us -uc}} ~~~(\texttt{-us -uc} disables signing the package with GPG)

  \hbr
\item Check that it worked
	\begin{itemize}
		\item  There are some new \texttt{.deb} files in the parent directory
	\end{itemize}
    \hbr
\item Look at the \texttt{debian/} directory
	\begin{itemize}
		\item That's where the packaging work is done
	\end{itemize}
\end{enumerate}
\end{frame}

\section{Creating source packages}
\subsection{Source packages basics}
\begin{frame}{Source package}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item One source package can generate several binary packages\\
    {\small e.g. the \texttt{\bfseries libtar} source generates the
      \texttt{\bfseries libtar0} and \texttt{\bfseries libtar-dev} binary
      packages} \hbr
  \item Two kinds of packages: (if unsure, use non-native)
    \begin{itemize}
      \small
    \item Native packages: normally for Debian specific software (\textsl{dpkg}, \textsl{apt})
    \item Non-native packages: software developed outside Debian
    \end{itemize}
    \hbr
  \item Main file: \texttt{.dsc} (meta-data)
    \hbr
  \item Other files depending on the version of the source format
    \begin{itemize}
    \item 1.0 or 3.0 (native): \texttt{package\_version.tar.gz}
      \hbr
    \item 1.0 (non-native):
      \begin{itemize}
      \item \texttt{pkg\_ver.orig.tar.gz}: upstream source
      \item \texttt{pkg\_debver.diff.gz}: patch to add Debian-specific changes
      \end{itemize}
      \hbr
    \item 3.0 (quilt):
      \begin{itemize}
      \item \texttt{pkg\_ver.orig.tar.gz}: upstream source
      \item \texttt{pkg\_debver.debian.tar.gz}: tarball with the Debian changes
      \end{itemize}
    \end{itemize}
  \end{itemize}
  \hbr
  (See \texttt{dpkg-source(1)} for exact details)
\end{frame}

\subsection{Retrieving source packages}
\begin{frame}{Retrieving an existing source package}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item From the Debian archive:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \texttt{apt-get source \textsl{package}}
    \item \texttt{apt-get source \textsl{package=version}}
    \item \texttt{apt-get source \textsl{package/release}}
    \end{itemize}
    (You need \texttt{deb-src} lines in \texttt{sources.list})
    \br
  \item From the Internet:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \texttt{dget \textsl{url-to.dsc}}
    \item \texttt{dget http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-archive/\\20090802T004153Z/debian/dists/bo/main/source/web/\\
        wget\_1.4.4-6.dsc}\\ 
      (\href{http://snapshot.debian.org/}{\ttfamily snapshot.d.o} provides all packages from Debian since 2005)
    \end{itemize}
    \br
  \item From the (declared) version control system:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \texttt{debcheckout \textsl{package}}
    \end{itemize}
    \br
  \item Once downloaded, extract with \texttt{dpkg-source -x \textsl{file.dsc}}
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\subsection{Creating a basic source package}
\begin{frame}{Creating a basic source package}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Download the upstream source\\
    (\textsl{upstream source} = the one from the software's original developers)
    \hbr
  \item Rename to \texttt{<\textsl{source\_package}>\_<\textsl{upstream\_version}>.orig.tar.gz}\\
    (example: \texttt{simgrid\_3.6.orig.tar.gz})
    \hbr
  \item Untar it
    \hbr
  \item Rename the directory to \texttt{<\textsl{source\_package}>-<\textsl{upstream\_version}>}\\
	  (example: \texttt{simgrid-3.6})
    \hbr
  \item \texttt{cd \texttt{<\textsl{source\_package}>-<\textsl{upstream\_version}>} \&\& dh\_make}\\
	  (from the \textbf{dh-make} package)
    \hbr
  \item There are some alternatives to \texttt{dh\_make} for specific sets of
    packages: \textbf{dh-make-perl}, \textbf{dh-make-php}, \ldots \hbr
  \item \texttt{debian/} directory created, with a lot of files in it
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\subsection{Files in debian/}
\begin{frame}{Files in debian/}
  All the packaging work should be made by modifying files in \texttt{debian/}
  \hbr
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Main files:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \textbf{control} -- meta-data about the package (dependencies, etc.)
    \item \textbf{rules} -- specifies how to build the package
    \item \textbf{copyright} -- copyright information for the package
    \item \textbf{changelog} -- history of the Debian package
    \end{itemize}
    \hbr
  \item Other files:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item compat
    \item watch
    \item dh\_install* targets\\
      {\small *.dirs, *.docs, *.manpages, \ldots}
    \item maintainer scripts\\
      {\small *.postinst, *.prerm, \ldots}
    \item source/format
    \item patches/ -- if you need to modify the upstream sources
    \end{itemize}
    \hbr
  \item Several files use a format based on RFC 822 (mail headers)
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile=singleslide]{debian/changelog}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Lists the Debian packaging changes
  \item Gives the current version of the package
  \begin{center}

	  %%
  \item Edited manually or with \textttc{dch}
  \begin{itemize}
	  \item Create a changelog entry for a new release: \textttc{dch -i}
  \end{itemize}
  \item Special format to automatically close Debian or Ubuntu bugs\\
    Debian: \texttt{Closes:~\#595268}; Ubuntu: \texttt{LP:~\#616929}
  \item Installed as \texttt{/usr/share/doc/\textit{package}/changelog.Debian.gz}

  Two kinds of binary packages:
  \hbr
  \begin{itemize}

    \begin{itemize}
    \item Example: C program
    \item \texttt{Architecture:\ any} in \texttt{debian/control}
      \begin{itemize}
      \item Or, if it only works on a subset of architectures:\\
        \texttt{Architecture:\ amd64 i386 ia64 hurd-i386}
      \end{itemize}
    \item buildd.debian.org: builds all the other architectures for you on upload
    \item Named \texttt{\textsl{package}\_\textsl{version}\_\textsl{architecture}.deb}
    \end{itemize}

  \item Packages with the same content on all architectures
    \begin{itemize}

    \item Support for Perl, Python, Ruby, GNOME, KDE, Java, Haskell, \ldots

      \begin{itemize}
      \item Sometimes difficult to customize package builds:\\
        "\textsl{twisty maze of makefiles and environment variables}"

\section{Building and testing packages}
\subsection{Building packages}
\begin{frame}{Building packages}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item \textttc{apt-get build-dep mypackage}\\
    Installs the \textsl{build-dependencies} (for a package already in Debian)\\
    Or \textttc{mk-build-deps -ir} (for a package not uploaded yet)
    
    \br
  \item \textttc{debuild}: build, test with \texttt{lintian}, sign with GPG
    \br
  \item Also possible to call \textttc{dpkg-buildpackage} directly
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Usually with \texttt{dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc}
    \end{itemize}
    \br
  \item It is better to build packages in a clean \& minimal environment
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \textttc{pbuilder} -- helper to build packages in a \textsl{chroot}\\
      Good documentation: \url{https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto}\\
      (optimization: \textttc{cowbuilder} \textttc{ccache} \textttc{distcc})
      \hbr
    \item \textttc{schroot} and \textttc{sbuild}: used on the Debian build daemons\\
      (not as simple as \texttt{pbuilder}, but allows LVM snapshots\\
       see: \url{https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SbuildLVMHowto} )
    \end{itemize}
    \br
  \item Generates \texttt{.deb} files and a \texttt{.changes} file
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \texttt{.changes}: describes what was built; used to upload the package
    \end{itemize}
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\subsection{Installing and testing packages}
\begin{frame}{Installing and testing packages}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Install the package locally: \textttc{debi} (will use \texttt{.changes}
    to know what to install) \br
  \item List the content of the package: \texttt{{\color{rouge}debc}
      ../mypackage<TAB>.changes} \br
  \item Compare the package with a previous version:\\
    \texttt{{\color{rouge}debdiff} ../mypackage\_1\_*.changes ../mypackage\_2\_*.changes}\\
    or to compare the sources:\\
    \texttt{{\color{rouge}debdiff} ../mypackage\_1\_*.dsc ../mypackage\_2\_*.dsc}\\
    \br
  \item Check the package with \texttt{lintian} (static analyzer):\\
    \texttt{{\color{rouge}lintian} ../mypackage<TAB>.changes}\\
    \texttt{lintian -i}: gives more information about the errors \\
    \texttt{lintian -EviIL +pedantic}: shows more problems\br
  \item Upload the package to Debian (\textttc{dput}) (needs configuration) \br
  \item Manage a private Debian archive with \textttc{reprepro} or \textttc{aptly}\\
    Documentation: \url{https://wiki.debian.org/HowToSetupADebianRepository}
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\section{Practical session 1: modifying the grep package}
\begin{frame}{Practical session 1: modifying the grep package}
  \begin{enumerate}
  \item Go to \url{http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/grep/} and
    download version 2.12-2 of the package
    \begin{itemize}
		   \item If the source package is not unpacked automatically, unpack it with
			   \texttt{dpkg-source~-x~grep\_*.dsc}
    \end{itemize}

  \item Look at the files in \texttt{debian/}.
    \begin{itemize}
    \item 		How many binary packages are generated by this source package?
    \item 		Which packaging helper does this package use?
    \end{itemize}
    \hbr
  \item Build the package
    \hbr
  \item We are now going to modify the package. Add a changelog entry and increase the version number.
    \hbr
  \item Now disable perl-regexp support (it is a \texttt{./configure} option)
    \hbr
  \item Rebuild the package
    \hbr
  \item Compare the original and the new package with debdiff
    \hbr

\subsection{Modifying the upstream source}
\begin{frame}{Modifying the upstream source}
  Often needed:
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Fix bugs or add customizations that are specific to Debian
    \hbr
  \item Backport fixes from a newer upstream release
  \end{itemize}
  \br
  Several methods to do it:
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Modifying the files directly
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Simple
    \item But no way to track and document the changes
    \end{itemize}
    \hbr
  \item Using patch systems
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Eases contributing your changes to upstream
    \item Helps sharing the fixes with derivatives
    \item Gives more exposure to the changes\\
      \url{http://patch-tracker.debian.org/} (down currently)
    \end{itemize}
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}{Patch systems}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Principle: changes are stored as patches in \texttt{debian/patches/}
    \br
  \item Applied and unapplied during build
    \br
  \item Past: several implementations -- \textsl{simple-patchsys} (\textsl{cdbs}),
    \textsl{dpatch}, \textbf{\textsl{quilt}}
    \begin{itemize}
  \item Each supports two \texttt{debian/rules} targets:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \texttt{debian/rules patch}: apply all patches
    \item \texttt{debian/rules unpatch}: de-apply all patches
    \end{itemize}
	  \hbr
  \item More documentation: \url{https://wiki.debian.org/debian/patches}
  \end{itemize}
  \br
  \item \textbf{New source package format with built-in patch system: 3.0 (quilt)}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Recommended solution
	  \hbr
  \item You need to learn \textsl{quilt}\\
    \url{https://perl-team.pages.debian.net/howto/quilt.html}
    \hbr
  \item Patch-system-agnostic tool in \texttt{devscripts}: \texttt{edit-patch}

\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile=singleslide]{Documentation of patches}

    \end{enumerate}
    \br
  \item \textbf{Better} ways to contribute:
	  \begin{itemize}
		  \item Get involved in packaging teams
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Many teams that focus on set of packages, and need help
    \item List available at \url{https://wiki.debian.org/Teams}
    \item An excellent way to learn from more experienced contributors
    \end{itemize}
    \br
\item Adopt existing unmaintained packages (\textsl{orphaned packages})
    \br
  \item Bring new software to Debian
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Only if it's interesting/useful enough, please
    \item Are there alternatives already packaged in Debian?

\begin{itemize}
\item Using \texttt{pbuilder} is recommended
\end{itemize}
\hbr
\item Run \texttt{lintian -EviIL +pedantic} on your package
\begin{itemize}

\item Adding information to bugs:
	\begin{itemize}
		\item Write to \texttt{123456@bugs.debian.org} (does not include the submitter, you need to add \texttt{123456-submitter@bugs.debian.org})
	\end{itemize}
\hbr
\item Changing bug status:
\begin{itemize}
\item Send commands to \texttt{control@bugs.debian.org}
\item Command-line interface: \texttt{bts} command in \texttt{devscripts}
\item Documentation: \url{https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control}
\end{itemize}
\hbr
\item Reporting bugs: use \texttt{reportbug}
\begin{itemize}
\item Normally used with a local mail server: install \texttt{ssmtp} or \texttt{nullmailer}
\item Or use \texttt{reportbug -\@-template}, then send (manually) to \texttt{submit@bugs.debian.org}
\end{itemize}

\subsection{More interested in Ubuntu?}
\begin{frame}{More interested in Ubuntu?}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Ubuntu mainly manages the divergence with Debian
    \br
  \item No real focus on specific packages\\
    Instead, collaboration with Debian teams
    \br
  \item Usually recommend uploading new packages to Debian first\\
    \url{https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages}
    \br
  \item Possibly a better plan:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Get involved in a Debian team and act as a bridge with Ubuntu
      \hbr
    \item Help reduce divergence, triage bugs in Launchpad
      \hbr
    \item Many Debian tools can help:
      \begin{itemize}
      \item Ubuntu column on the Developer's packages overview
      \item Ubuntu box on the Package Tracking System
      \item Receive launchpad bugmail via the PTS

	\item Look at the files in \texttt{debian/}.
		\begin{itemize}
			\item 		How many binary packages are generated by this source package?

		{\small \texttt{dget http://cdn.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/grep/grep\_2.12-2.dsc}}
		\hbr
	\item If you have \texttt{deb-src} for a Debian release that has \texttt{grep} version 2.12-2 (find out on \url{https://tracker.debian.org/grep}), you can use:
		\texttt{apt-get source grep=2.12-2}\\
		or \texttt{apt-get source grep/release} (e.g. \texttt{grep/stable})\\
		or, if you feel lucky: \texttt{apt-get source grep}
	\hbr
	\item The \texttt{grep} source package is composed of three files:
		\begin{itemize}
			\item \texttt{grep\_2.12-2.dsc}
			\item \texttt{grep\_2.12-2.debian.tar.bz2}
			\item \texttt{grep\_2.12.orig.tar.bz2}

\begin{itemize}
	\item Look at \texttt{debian/changelog}, \texttt{debian/rules}, \texttt{debian/control}\\
		(auto-filled by \textbf{dh\_make})
		\hbr
	\item In \texttt{debian/control}:\\
		\texttt{Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7.0.50~), autotools-dev}\\
		Lists the \textsl{build-dependencies} = packages needed to build the package
		\hbr
	\item Try to build the package as-is with \texttt{debuild} (thanks to \textbf{dh} magic)
		\begin{itemize}
			\item And add build-dependencies, until it builds
			\item Hint: use \texttt{apt-cache search} and \texttt{apt-file} to find the packages
			\item Example:
\begin{lstlisting}[basicstyle=\ttfamily\footnotesize]
checking for sdl-config... no
checking for SDL - version >= 1.2.0... no
[...]
configure: error: *** SDL version 1.2.0 not found!
\end{lstlisting}
$\rightarrow$ Add \textbf{libsdl1.2-dev} to Build-Depends and install it.
		\hbr
	\item Better: use \textbf{pbuilder} to build in a clean environment
		\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile=singleslide]{Step by step\ldots (3)}
	\begin{itemize}
		\item Required build-dependencies are \texttt{libsdl1.2-dev, libsdl-image1.2-dev, libsdl-mixer1.2-dev}

		\item Then, you will probably run into another error:
	\end{itemize}
	\begin{lstlisting}[basicstyle=\ttfamily\tiny]
	/usr/bin/ld: SDL_rotozoom.o: undefined reference to symbol 'ceil@@GLIBC_2.2.5'
	//lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line
	collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
	Makefile:376: recipe for target 'gnujump' failed
	\end{lstlisting}
	\begin{itemize}
		\item This problem is caused by bitrot: gnujump has not been adjusted following linker changes.
		\item If you are using source format version \textbf{1.0}, you can directly change upstream sources.
			\begin{itemize}
				\item Edit \texttt{src/Makefile.am} and replace
\begin{lstlisting}[basicstyle=\ttfamily\footnotesize]
gnujump_LDFLAGS = $(all_libraries)
\end{lstlisting}
					by
\begin{lstlisting}[basicstyle=\ttfamily\footnotesize]
gnujump_LDFLAGS = -Wl,--as-needed
gnujump_LDADD = $(all_libraries) -lm
\end{lstlisting}

	\end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile=singleslide]{Step by step\ldots (4)}
\begin{itemize}
	\item If you are using source format version \textbf{3.0 (quilt)}, use \texttt{quilt} to prepare a patch. (see \url{https://wiki.debian.org/UsingQuilt})
\begin{itemize}
\item \texttt{export QUILT\_PATCHES=debian/patches}
\item \texttt{mkdir debian/patches}\\
\texttt{quilt new linker-fixes.patch}\\
\texttt{quilt add src/Makefile.am}\\
\hbr
\item Edit \texttt{src/Makefile.am} and replace
\begin{lstlisting}[basicstyle=\ttfamily\footnotesize]
gnujump_LDFLAGS = $(all_libraries)
\end{lstlisting}
by
\begin{lstlisting}[basicstyle=\ttfamily\footnotesize]
gnujump_LDFLAGS = -Wl,--as-needed
gnujump_LDADD = $(all_libraries) -lm
\end{lstlisting}
\hbr
\item \texttt{quilt refresh}
	\hbr
	\item Since \texttt{src/Makefile.am} was changed, autoreconf must be called during the build. To do that automatically with \texttt{dh}, change the \texttt{dh} call in \texttt{debian/rules} from:
\texttt{dh \$\@ -{}-with autotools-dev}\\
to: \texttt{dh \$\@ -{}-with autotools-dev -{}-with autoreconf}

		\hbr
	\item Test the package with \texttt{lintian}
		\begin{itemize}
			\item While not a strict requirement, it is recommended that packages uploaded to Debian are \textsl{lintian-clean}
		\hbr
			\item More problems can be listed using \texttt{lintian -EviIL +pedantic}
		\hbr
			\item Some hints:
				\begin{itemize}
					\item Remove the files that you don't need in \texttt{debian/}
		\hbr
					\item Fill in \texttt{debian/control}
						\hbr
					\item Install the executable to \texttt{/usr/games} by overriding \texttt{dh\_auto\_configure}

	\item Compare your package with the one already packaged in Debian:
		\begin{itemize}
			\item It splits the data files to a second package, that is the same across all architectures ($\rightarrow$ saves space in the Debian archive)
				\hbr
			\item It installs a .desktop file (for the GNOME/KDE menus) and also integrates into the Debian menu
