How to packaging my script?
 
My python code is at:
/usr/lib/hildon-desktop

Location of my shortcut:
/usr/share/applications/hildon-status-menu/

How do i edit a file as root inside python code?
The file I want to change is class as "root" rw-r--r--

==========

As above I'm writing a small plugin and wanted to know how to do the packaging. Can someone link me to the handy tutorial?

What is the equilvalent of Python to this Xterminal command?

In a hurry, are you? :)

First of all, to change permissions on file owned by root, your code needs to be root.

Second, the methods you are looking for are os.chown() (for changing owner, if you need to) and os.chmod() (for changing permissions). The library reference is your friend:
http://docs.python.org/library/os.html

So, to change the permission:
Code:
import os
import stat

os.chmod('/your/file', stat.S_IRUSR | stat.S_IWUSR | stat.S_IRGRP | stat.S_IROTH)
(See the documentation of stat module for more info about the flags)

Code:

os.system('chmod -R 666 path/to/file')

Yes was a bit hurry, I'm testing my little plugin. And hoping to release it very soon to accomidating people who has the problem with their FM Transmitter.

This script doesn't do anything because it doesn't have root access to do anything.

The following code is just an example. You have to change the control files and the data contents. N900 uses standard debian packages. You can search google for deb build scripts.

On a Linux system (e.g. Ubuntu) you can type the following:

Code:
mkdir packagetest
cd packagetest

wget http://torsten-traenkner.de/wissen/n900/mplayer-touchcontrol_1.0_armel.deb

# extract debian package
ar xv mplayer-touchcontrol_1.0_armel.deb

# extract data and control parts
mkdir data
mkdir control
tar xzvf data.tar.gz -C data
tar xzvf control.tar.gz -C control

# modify the data
cd data

# compress the data
tar czvf ../data.tar.gz *

# create MD5 checksums
find . -type f ! -regex '.*/DEBIAN/.*' -printf '%P\0' | xargs -r0 md5sum | sort -k2 > ../control/md5sums

# compress control
cd ../control
tar czvf ../control.tar.gz *
cd ..

# create package
ar -r mplayer-touchcontrol_1.0_armel.deb debian-binary control.tar.gz data.tar.gz
