The first thing that needs doing is the debian/copyright file. All of the various licenses of the code that are included in the openni source release need to be marked in there, or the Debian ftp-masters will reject the package. So things like in the ThirdParty/ folder. Check out the debian/copyright in 'openni' for an example.
Also, your debian/changelog seems to have a syntax issue: parsechangelog/debian: warning: openni2/debian/changelog(l6): badly formatted trailer line LINE: -- Hauke Wintjen <hwint...@rimpl-consulting.de> Fri, 29 Mar 2013 23:14:11 +010openni2 (2.1.0.4-1ubuntu1~1.gbp2a4158) UNRELEASED; urgency=low The best way to edit debian/changelog is to use the 'dch' utility. Also, what tool are you building it with? I couldn't get it to build with either dpkg-buildpackage or git-buildpackage. Why do you change the SONAME from upstream? That's a pretty unusual thing to do. patches/0001-Add-SONAME-to-libraries.patch .hc On 11/20/2013 11:30 AM, Hauke Wintjen wrote: > Hi Hans-Christoph. > > I already have "readily" debian / ubuntu packages on github, so the > "only" thing missing is reviewing it by some more experienced debian > maintainers and getting it into debian binary packages. > > These packages are also compiling / working on Raspbian(!). > > See https://github.com/hcw70/OpenNI2 > > Regards > > Hauke > > > Am Mittwoch, den 20.11.2013, 11:26 -0500 schrieb Hans-Christoph Steiner: >> They've built up a new machine and have much of it restored, but its still in >> progress.
