I never done that.
But i saw there are a lot of manuals in the internet. just enter
how to create deb
or
how to make deb
in google.

for example:
http://wiki.debian.org/HowToPackageForDebian

(Dont' worry if it is "Debian". Ubuntu descend from Debian. That is why they normaly can use the same deb packages.)

Silver did you make any progress on that?

At school I use ubuntu 10 lts, and in the package manager there was an earlier fet version (I think 5.11). It was so easy to install. I find it rather difficult to compile it myself, since qt and other tools (gcc etc) are in prior versions that the ones asking the current version.

Is there any easy way to update the version of fet already installed?

Thanks

Thanks a lot daviodan!!!

I'll try that tomorrow at school ;)

Do you know what is the difference between "hurd-i386" and "i386"? I'll try the second one and I'll let you know...

I also found the same version, for ubuntu here: (slightly different size)

I tried that, but it is not working at ubuntu 10. It seems I have an older version of qt4 (4.6.2) and the package gives me an error. I tried to install qt 4.8.2, but again I have to mess with compiling etc, and I'm not familiar at all with this procedure :(
