 ====== Notes on Debian Packaging ======
+===== An Alternative - stdeb =====
+  Hi everyone
+  Some time ago, I gave a talk about the "fpm" package manager a while back.
+  Today, I came across a different tool, which is also available from
+  the Ubuntu repositories called "stdeb":
+  https://github.com/astraw/stdeb
+  I successfully generated a Debian package for one of my little Python utilities:
+  https://github.com/waikato-datamining/docker-banner-gen/releases/tag/v.0.0.6
+  Just by using this command-line (using the "setup.py" of the project):
+  python3 setup.py --command-packages=stdeb.command bdist_deb
+  Requires "python3-all" to be installed.
+  Thought you might find this useful.
+  Cheers, Peter
