How to create installer package (*.deb or smth)?

[Zhomart]

I have many devices with debian on them. My application is written using Poco. I have 1 development device where I compile and test my application. Now I want to install the application to all other devices.
Compiling Poco on each devices takes several hours without tests/samples.

I've tried compiling static independent binary using g++ -static but I couldn't make it work.
Now I've tried shipping compiled "libPoco*.so.41" together with app and run app with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set, couldn't make it run, complains about different versions of libstdc++.so.6.

Now I want to generate *.deb package for Poco and install it on other devices. I don't know is it a good/easy way.

How do you ship your application written using Poco?

see distro

I also added a Dockerfile, which is building the package: Dockerfile (Hope this is the correct place).

You can use the distro/Linux/Ubuntu/poco/1.6.1/debian/ directory to setup your own debian package or use this ppa if the poco-1.6.1 version is fine for your need.

• sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:zosrothko/poco
• sudo apt-get update -qq
• sudo apt-get install -qq -y libpoco-dev

This is just great, thank you! I'll test it out today.

I'm working on arm, unfortunately repository of @zosrothko didn't help. Tried building using distro stuck on some stupid issue pocoproject/distro#8.

I used commands from Dockerfile provided by @avalchev . It works, thank you!
