Packaging software
 |
As a novice programmer, I'm trying to figure out how I can make a software package from my code. It's Python, so it doesn't really need to be compiled.
But anyways, could anybody point me to a good resource where I can figure it out?
Thanks,
Jordy

Which platform are you planning to deploy it on? You can choose say, RPM for RH based distro's, or .debs for debian... or, go good old fashioned tar ball (.tar.gz) which is pretty universal.

EDIT:
I'd like to tarball it also, but only as an alternative if somebody's distro isn't supported.

http://www.linuxdevices.com/articles/AT8047723203.html is a pretty good starting point for making debs.
http://wiki.freegeek.org/index.php/B...bian_Packaging is a short but good one.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGui...gesFromScratchAnd this one is a whole lot more work, but will help you understand it really (really) well.
