I have heard that automake now has the ability to create debian packages. My question is how can this .deb be used with dselect/apt-get? How do you set that up for automatic upgrading in potato, woody, and sid? How can you put your .deb on a server somewhere and then tell apt-get and dselect it is there and broadcast that to the opensource community at large that they can get access to automatic updates from that server? I love debian linux and dselect/apt-get has been ported to cygwin if I am not mistaken. I am eager to use it in an intelligent way.
Thanks, Tim Heath
