Help on 'repackage'                                             Feta 1.4.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The 'repackage' command will take a package you have installed, and try
to generate a .deb file from it. While this is generally successful, the
package may not have exactly the same contents - for example, it may
contain modified configuration files and databases, or any other changes
you may have made to the files since they were installed.

EXAMPLES
--------
To repackage the 'slib' package, if you have it installed:
 # feta repackage slib

OTHER REFERENCES
----------------
'repackage' uses dpkg-repack(1). There are some more caveats to the
program given there. Despite these, the program usually works well, and
is very useful.
