Overview ¶
Package linux handles Linux-specific build steps — wrapping the raw binary into a Debian binary package (.deb). Pure-Go ar + tar implementation means no system dpkg-deb is required and the package can be cross-built from any host.

func PackageDeb ¶
PackageDeb builds a Debian binary package from a freshly compiled Linux binary. Layout inside the .deb:
usr/bin/<app> (the binary) usr/bin/<app>-gate (gate sidecar, when shipped) usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/<app>.png (brand icon) usr/share/icons/hicolor/1024x1024/apps/<app>.png (brand icon) usr/share/applications/<app>.desktop (.desktop entry) DEBIAN/control (package metadata)
.deb format: ar archive containing debian-binary (text "2.0\n"), control.tar.gz (DEBIAN/*), data.tar.gz (the rest of the filesystem).
gateBinPath (optional) is the gate sidecar to ship as `/usr/bin/<app>-gate`. Empty = no sidecar (the main binary still has gate embedded; runtime extracts to the session dir on first hook fire). When non-empty, the sibling lookup picks up the installed gate before any extract — visible to the operator, no per-session extract churn.
Output path is <dir-of-binPath>/<app>-linux-<arch>.deb — kept consistent with mac (.dmg) and windows (.exe) naming so the self-updater can resolve assets with one rule.
