# How to compile a Deb package
Use these instructions to build your own Deb package from your local sources.
For the latest official packages go to [Debian](http://packages.debian.org/arduino-mk)
or [Ubuntu](https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/arduino-mk) or use apt.
First install the dependencies as root:
apt-get build-dep arduino-mk
apt-get install arduino-core libdevice-serialport-perl help2man build-essential dpkg-dev
Fetch the Debian source:
apt-get source arduino-mk
Make any local changes to want within arduino-mk-* directory and update the package version:
cd arduino-mk-*
dch -i
Then compile. This will create a binary Deb:
dpkg-buildpackage -b
