It is quite common, for an administrator who has been handling Debian packages in a<br />

regular fashion, to eventually feel the need to create their own packages, or to modify<br />

an existing package. This chapter aims to answer the most common questions in this<br />

field, and provide the required elements to take advantage of the Debian infrastructure<br />

in the best way. With any luck, after trying your hand for local packages, you<br />

may even feel the need to go further than that and join the Debian project itself!
