Hello,
I developed a software, which is itself licensed under GPL and requires other software to run which is already part of Ubuntu. Currently it can be installed in Ubuntu by following a rather cumbersome installation instruction. It can be found here:

http://de.wikibooks.org/wiki/Benutzer:Dirk_Huenniger/wb2pdf/ubuntu

Now I would like to make a package from the software. Most requiered software is packaged with Ubuntu. Some packages are installed by the cabal package manager of the Haskell programming language. Furthermore a selfmade truetype font is installed into the texlive installation.

So I think the first problem I got to solve it to split the problem to proper subpackages and get specific information from the people maintaining the Haskell part (called ghc libghc6 and so on) and support from the texlive maintainers. Once I got these problems solved I can package my own software.

Yours Dirk
