I've got exactly the same error when trying to build my package with dpkg-build.

Anyone ?

You can't do that on your N900, it has to be done in your scratchbox

I was talking about the out-of-the-box N900

Does pypackager adds the dpkg -b command to the N900 X-Term?

I've some problems in creating a .deb using TNIGa's nice guide.

First of all, X-Term gave me some errors regarding bad permissions, but I've solved it manually changing permissions to some files.
Now it's giving me another error.
It says:

tar: unrecognized option "--format=gnu"

and then, after explaining the correct usage of tar, it says

dpkg-deb: subprocess tar -cf returned error exit status 1

What can I do?
this code helped me
Code:
apt-get update
apt-get install tar-gnu
cp /usr/bin/gnu/tar /bin/
