Thank you for responding, Mechtilde! > Please tell us, what you want to package. Then we can look for a similar one.
I packaged software 20 years ago as a Debian package at my former workplace. IIRC, it was just a bunch of shell and Python scripts, maybe a few binaries. Back then I had to scale rolling out software on a fleet of machines. I basically like to do the same again, and I'm looking for good examples. > Normally all packages are installable as a privileged user like sudo or > root. This means installing with apt install or using synaptic. Yep, I understand. But is there a way to install software without sudo or being root? E.g. when my package installs software only in a location where it has write access. The scenario is, I have users that must install the software on a managed machine. The system administrators manage the operating system as such, the users install and run their software in user space. Peter
