Would be an awesome tool guide to see a workflowchart of Debian tools.

The naming of tools often gets lost in the way things are built.

I do not know if the centralized approach of using "rpmbuild" (via command line options" is better for workflow or debian multi-tools (via separate executable) is better UNIX approach.

But at any rate, a workflowchart would be "awesome" of Debian.

Personally, I like to use wajig, which combines several (most?) Debian packaging operations in one tool.

That's not for building.
