I am new to Ubuntu development. As a learning experience, I have written a custom chat application using qt4 and I want to deploy it in some sort of setup file. Whats the easiest way of deploying an application viz a viz
- setting desktop icons.
- automatically requesting for administrator privileges to execute.
- inserting an entry into the startup menu.
- automatically compress my application and reduce download size.
- automatic startup for my application without user intervention
I am familiar with using NSIS scripts on Windows, but I don't know where to begin on Ubuntu. I would preffer a solution similar to NSIS scripts.
