pkgmany / debmany

Creates a .deb package based on the source code or just downloads it from the URL

-- "I want to offer <name here> program for packaging"

To do this, go to "Issues" tab and create an issue with the title starting with "[Package offer]"

-- "Where can I find example of a DEBBUILD?"

file example.debbuild
You will need to rename it to DEBBUILD

-- "Where can I find a detailed DEBBUILD writing guide?"

How to install and use this?

./install.sh || ./install.sh /usr/bin
debmany --help

How to remove this?

./install.sh remove || ./install.sh remove /usr/bin

When building the package for the second time, errors occur. I need to download the source again. What to do?

if debmany, use debmany -rs
if pkgmany, use rm .sources_exists in current directory with DEBBUILD

Attention

This script is in early alpha. There may be some bugs. Also, if this project grows large, I will completely rewrite the code and invite other developers. But you can already help by messaging me in Telegram. And yes, this script is not of the best quality, but I'm trying to make things easier with my knowledge. Thank you.
