h1. Packaging 

 To be able to install TVHeadend permanently on your system, or distribute to others, its highly recommend that you build a package. 

 But before you can do this make sure you have read the basic build instructions [[Building|here]] 

 Different distributions will have different package formats, however TVHeadend comes with scripts to help build several common ones. 

 h2. Ubuntu / Debian 

 To build a deb package for the latest version of Ubuntu (Precise, at the time of writing) you can do the following: 

 > x86 32-bit 
 <pre> 
 $ ./AutoBuild.sh -t precise-i386 
 </pre> 

 > x86 64-bit 
 <pre> 
 $ ./AutoBuild.sh -t precise-amd64 
 </pre> 

 Note: Although the scripts are named precise (for Ubuntu 12.04) they will work just fine with most recent versions of Debian/Ubuntu.
