Talk: What goes into a Debian package?

Some months ago I gave a talk / live demo at work about how Debian source and binary packages are constructed.

Yesterday I repeated this talk (with minor updates) for the Chicago LUG. I had quite a small audience, but got some really good questions at the end. I have now put the notes up on my talks page.

No, I'm not in Chicago. This was a trial run of giving a talk remotely, which I'll also be doing for DebConf this year. I set up an RTMP server in the cloud (nginx) and ran OBS Studio on my laptop to capture and transmit video and audio. I'm generally very impressed with OBS Studio, although the X window capture source could do with improvement. I used the built-in camera and mic, but the mic picked up a fair amount of background noise (including fan noise, since the video encoding keeps the CPU fairly busy). I should probably switch to a wearable mic in future.
