Replace gdebi with apt in project README #29

Closed JJRcop closed 3 years ago

JJRcop commented 3 years ago

Modern apt versions since apt 1.1 (2015) support local .deb installation if a full or relative path is provided, so gdebi is not required.

Also some minor grammatical corrections around the touched area

Hey that's great.. In fact, I'm myself using apt to install local packages, but did not update the README. For installation on raspberry-pi, I'm already using it :)

If possible, can you also make changes here as well and test the deb file locally. You can add it as a separate commit, and if possible squash the two README commits into one, that will be helpful.

Squashed README.md commits and added to create_deb.py.

Also modified the tail of create_deb.py to only print if dpkg-deb succeeds, and the .deb file exists.
