I have been doing alot of reading about building my own debs. i am able to create my own debs for some programs, but my question is this.

the "make" compiles all the files..

the "make install" copies the compiled files to the right directory. This is where my question is. I need to find out what files goto what directory so i can set up a mach directory tree for the deb. i looks through the settings.pro and makefile. am i missing something?? how do i know what files get copied where??

anyone with deb makeing experience? <cough cesman!> lol

Checkinstall or the official way...
