To simplify the process of building Debian packages, you can use the scripts provided in the deb-build-utils package. This package includes the following useful scripts:
version-updater.sh: This script updates the version number in a project'sproject.propertiesfile.generate_control_file.sh: This script generates the debian/control file for your package.deb_structure.sh: This script sets up the basic structure of your package directory.builder.sh: This script automates the process of building your package.
These scripts can save you time and effort when building and maintaining Debian packages. For more information, you can refer to the deb-build-utils repository on GitHub: https://github.com/srnjak/deb-build-utils
