I already said this several times in the past.

If someone creates a clean procedure "make deb-dist release=1" and
"make deb-this" that does exactly what "rpm-dist" and "rpm-this" does,
it will be included in the fvwm sources. Then everyone, for example
yourself could build deb from any tar.gz or cvs automatically in minutes.

Of course the procedure should not add any extra files to deb (or as less
as possible) not to be different much from installing from the sources.
It may also use the same configure options that the rpm procedure does.

Mikhael.
