Thanks, I’ll definitely take a look at that.

Are there any good tutorials out there on using dpkg-buildpackage and how to correctly manage the version, changelog, and other files used for the deb packaging? Most of the stuff I’ve seen is aimed towards providing deb packages for the official Debian package archive.

I noticed that jenkins-debian-glue goes and stores the built packages in something called reprepro that looks like a local apt repository? Is this easy to use outside of jenkins-debian-glue?

What’s the generally recommended way to store and deploy release artifacts, in this case deb files, from Jenkins? Do I store them in something like this reprepro tool? Do I use a commercial tool like artifactory?

Thanks
