First off, if you're not familiar with Scibuntu, its here: http://scibuntu.sourceforge.net/
Of note, a really great resource is here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuScience
If you're familiar with Scibuntu, it comes with many programs available for hard sciences.
That's fine, but I'm in clinical psychology, and the only special programs I use are Statistics programs and bibliography programs.
Enter my flavor of Scibuntu: Social Sciences.
What I'd like to do is somehow package (for myself and others) both programs that I've compiled to run on my computer as well as programs that can be found as just a .deb file.
What I'd like to know is how do I make it so that all of this can be done for me, so it doesnt have to be done by hand?
Is it a script, or am I going the route of rematersys?
Thanks in advance for all information, and feel free to ask me any questions. For what its worth, I've been pretty successful in the past with winning people over to linux-- but not those on my home field turf (psychology) because they lack easily accessible and adequate tools (PSPP, Rkward, R, Referencer, Bibus, etc)
