Introduction
The usual way of developing Maemo applications is using or Scratchbox or MADDE, which are quite heavy for Python development. An alternative is using stdeb, a set of extensions to distutils that allows generating debian packages, both binary and source, that can be installed on the device or sent to the extra-devel repository.
This tutorial will show how to integrate it into your project, building the packages and uploading it to extras-devel.
Prerequisites
As stdeb extends distutils, it is necessary that you have a working setup.py script.
