added environemnt preflight checks and debian package build script #1128

Closed tuxmainy closed 1 month ago

tuxmainy commented 1 month ago

preflight check safes a few minutes when initially setting up your build environment by terminating the build script early on obvious errors
debian package build script creates 2 seperate packages for navmap and navconnect. The package also adds the desktop file into the global application share directory

I'd liked to create two separate pull requests for both commits but looks like this is not how pull requests are working :) The second commit added build script for debian packages is the important one.

Very helpful. :+1: I thought about adding this for a long time already. Give me some time until I merge this PR since I'm stuck in another task.

@tuxmainy Can you put Little Navmap, Little Navconnect and Little Xpconnect into one package? This would make the distribution simpler for me and also enable the Xpconnect installation function in LNM tools menu.
