Good afternoon.
Tell me how to actually build a deb package from the sources of the Qt project? I tried the manual and it didn't work. Maybe for Qt projects this method is irrelevant? I've never built packages by hand, so don't kick too hard.

And what is the relationship between .deb and Qt?
I have not tried to build .deb packages, it is easier to just compile the source computer - but I don’t see the connection between the library and the format for installation on Debian systems ...

If it's for you, then the easiest way to build is described here (paragraph "Building a deb package manually"). You can also read interesting things in the comments.
If, however, to prepare for the repository, then you will have to master debian / rules, the debuild utility and related tools. Maintainer guide to help. (:

Literally a week ago, for the sake of AppShowdown, I dealt with this issue. Everything turned out according to this manual: PackagingGuide/QtApplication . The basics of the process are best viewed here: Packaging New Software .

go to the project folder.
do qmake --project (will create a pro file)
then just qmake.
then make
and finally checkinstall -D --install=no (checkinstall must be installed to run)
