Description
Similar to issue #1405: [OpenTK] Create MSI packages for Windows (help wanted), we should distribute DEB packages for OpenTK. This would allow easy installation and dependency resolution both for OpenTK and for projects relying on OpenTK. Additionally, it would be the first step necessary for including OpenTK in official repositories.
In the short term, we need someone familiar with - or willing to learn - the tools that create DEB packages to help create those packages. In the long term, we should find a way to automate package creation through the build system.
