KaliTools

Process:
- Pick a program to install
- Contents of source from git.kali.org repos goes into dist/ folder
- Inside each repo, there is usually a debian folder. This can be used to make a .deb package
- Some programs are just fancified Python scripts and have no debian/ directory
- Make dpkg package with
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b - Go to parent directory
cd .. - Install the .deb file that resulted,
dpkg -i mypackage.deb - Check you can see the package through aptitude:
apt-get install mypackageshould say you have it installed - Upgrade to the latest,
apt-get upgrade mypackage
Some confusion over the Debian Directory was cleared up by reading the documentation of dpkg-buildpackage.
