+How do I create a source package?
+=================================
+
+   Use the script!
+
+      > ./makeSourcePackage.sh  [-h for options]
+
+      The script gets the svn number, grabs the sources from the svn
+      repository, removed .svn files from it, and calls debuild to create a
+      source package. 
+
+      You might:
+         - specify a given svn revision (usually not needed)
+         - specify a list of distribs to build for
+
+      Example:
+
+         > ./makeSourcePackage.sh -distribution "precise wheezy trusty"
+
+      You should get as many source packages as wanted distributions. For each
+      of them you get (example here for wheezy):
+
+         retroshare06_0.6.0-0.7829~wheezy.dsc
+         retroshare06_0.6.0-0.7829~wheezy_source.build
+         retroshare06_0.6.0-0.7829~wheezy_source.changes
+         retroshare06_0.6.0-0.7829~wheezy.tar.gz
+         
+How do I create a binary package?
+=================================
+
+*Initial steps*
+
+   1 - You need to use/install pbuilder-dist:
+
+      > sudo apt-get install ubuntu-dev-tools
+   
+   2 - To do once: Init the building environment for each distribution you need:
+
+      > pbuilder-dist wheezy amd64 create
+
+   Then, when needed, keep t up to date (this solved almost all compiling
+   issues you might have:
+
+      > pbuilder-dist wheezy amd64 update
+
+   3 - For ubuntu distribs, add a ppa dependency for sqlcipher:
+
+      * add this line to ~/.pbuilderrc: OTHERMIRROR="deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/guardianproject/ppa/ubuntu precise main"
+      * add the ppa to the build environment:
+
+         > pbuilder-dist precise login --save-after-login
          # apt-key adv --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys  2234F563
          # exit
-			pbuilder-dist precise update --release-only			# the --release-only is really required!
+         > pbuilder-dist precise update --release-only         # the --release-only is really required!
+
+*Package compilation*
+
+      > pbuilder-dist wheezy build retroshare06_0.6.0~7856~wheezy.dsc
+
+   The generated compiled binary packages (including all package plugins etc)
+   will  be in ~/pbuilder/wheezy_result/
+
