Building Debian Package

If you wish to build a Debian package, follow these steps:

1. Ensure the rules file is executable:

   sudo chmod +x debian/rules

2. Build the package:

   • Without signing:

     sudo dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us

   • With signing (replace <KEY_ID> with your GPG key ID):

     sudo dpkg-buildpackage -k<KEY_ID>

     To list your GPG keys, use gpg --list-keys.

3. Cleanup build files:
   After building the package, remove temporary files with:

   sudo debclean

   This ensures your workspace is clean and free of leftover build artifacts.

Notes:

• Ensure you use sudo for all commands.
• Your newly created package files will be in the parent directory.
