Abstract
We will demonstrate the building of a Debian package by preparing a .deb file
for dlkern, a package to download the Linux kernel and verify its signature.
Dlkern is a very simple one file script. Therefore this session will cover
only
the very basics of Debian Package building.

Attendees are invited to gather for dinner prior to the meeting at 6:30 PM at
Dock Street Brew Pub at the Terminal (215-922-4292), 1150 Filbert Street,
Philadelphia, PA. Please RSVP so we can get an appropriate sized table.
Keysigning Notes
If you want your key signed by other members and/or Debian developers,
please follow these instructions carefully.
To facilitate the keysigning, please send an e-mail to Chris Fearnley
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with the following details about your public
key:
* Your real name * Your email address * Your User ID, as it appears
on their public key. In most (all?) * cases, this
should be a mixture of your real name, plus your email address.
* Your Key ID * Your Key Size (bits) * Your Key Fingerprint *
The contents of your public key * The type of key (RSA in most cases)
GPG users should use "gpg --export --armor NAME " to retrieve their
key and "gpg --fingerprint NAME" to retrieve their fingerprint and
KeyID. For PGP users, most of this information can be obtained by
typing "pgp -kvc <username>".
Finally, please bring positive picture ID to the meeting as well as a copy of
all of the information that you send to Chris by e-mail.
