This script will generate a Debian-style package from the latest build of Rainloop. It's a fairly simple package, so it should be compatible with all Debian-based distributions. Rainloop itself is extracted to
/usr/share/rainloop, and the data files are stored in/var/lib/rainloop. Permissions are set automatically. After installing this package, setting up a websever (or symlinking from a web-accessible directory) to/usr/share/rainloopis all that's necessary to begin using the software.NB: This sort of script isn't the recommended way to create a Debian package, so more work would be required to include it in the Debian repositories. Aside from the packaging details, the now-superfluous
rainloop/v/$VERSIONdirectories should be excluded, and config files should be stored under/etc(a symlink to the expected config file location under/var/lib/rainloopsatisfies this) to comply with Debian standards.Fixes #1290.
