Setup a PPA installation for the theme!

[anmoljagetia]

I would like to have a PPA installer for the theme. Where the user can add a PPA and the run sudo apt-get Flatabulous install and sudo apt-get update to fetch the latest updates. I presently have no experience with creating PPA's and writing installer scripts for theme. Looking for help here!

Could it help you ?

I'm not an Ubuntu user. Can't help more.

@Swizz540 Thanks a lot!

Do you know where can we get started?

@anmoljagetia Found some really good answers here to proceed with creating your own PPA.

@prempalsingh Thanks! I already found this link before, and read through it, however, my main issue is not how to generate a PPA, rather it is, as to how does the installer work for it, as in what binaries do I have to generate.

I've found cmake to be a very easy way to create Debian packages.
Have a look at one of my projects as an example:

So.
I read about debuild. It seem to be able to do the right job.

More.

Noobslab added your theme to their PPA.

Thanks @hg8! I got an email from them, and this is really good! I am interested in finding out how they achieved this (for future projects!).
