About the video
Creating a little program with python is fun; but how to share it with other users in the Linux world ? Not everyone is technical experienced enough to install python, all required python-modules, the program itself and make an menu entry for it. The video show you how to make an ready-to-doubleklick self-installed debian-package (.deb) out of your python program.
Technical information
The video was recorded and tested on a Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft) System but should work on all Debian-based Linux Systems.
