Packaging a RoR app for Debian Linux

Well, it appears as if I might be the first person in the world to package up a Ruby on Rails application for Debian. Let me say that I have zero experience in building Debian packages and I really didn't want to start off this way. But since I need it for my business I guess there is no way around it. Oh well, I guess its a good learning experience.
I'll try to keep this blog up-to-date with my progress. I'm actually kinda looking forward to it.
