Debian Package Maker - questions
Debian Package Maker is a program that makes .deb files. You fill out a bunch of
information and it makes the .deb file for you.
.deb was invented by the Debian people and then adopted by Ubuntu (which is
derived from Debian) and by Mint (which is derived from Ubuntu) and by Damn Small
(which is derived from Debian). .deb files are used by apt (Advanced Packaging
Tool). apt avoids 'dependency hell', a horrible experience that I am familiar
with from the days of Mandrake and rpm. .deb files probably will become the
standard way to install things on GNU/Linux.

I have some questions about Debian Package Maker.
I will start with only one question. Maybe more questions later.
In 'target mode', in the 'Install Structures' tab,
it says 'Installation Idirectory' (typo?).
My question is:
What should be the standard directory for Euphoria applications in binary form?
Here is the nix config page:
http://rapideuphoria.wiki.sourceforge.net/nix+config
Near the bottom you will see a list of places to put Euphoria files.
Where would you put a Euphoria binary application?
Perhaps this question is premature. Maybe some other things need to be decided
first.
