Need Help Making A Deb In Windows
Well, I'm attempting to make my very own Cydia apps. My only (Yes, I'm pretty sure only) problem, is that I can't figure out how to make a deb. I tried ideb, and tried it with WinSCP, but I just can't get it to work. If I can give someone a zip with the files I need, could someone turn it into a deb for me? If I can get that, I can upload it and everything.

Urm, a .deb is an Ubuntu file and they're often a lot more versatile

Jailbroken iDevices use them too.
@elfin8er If you manage to get it working, I might try it since my iPod is jailbroken.

You can install it with Installous. Trust me, it is VERY slow and crashes a lot.

You would need an Apple A4/A5 ARM toolchain to compile the apps...which is only technically available through Apple. Look up ARM cross-compiler.

You sure about that? I've seen TONS of other ways to do it, just none of them work. Could I give someone my files to look over, and make sure I'm doing everything correctly?
