I want to run a virtual machine in my Ubuntu desktop that runs a Debian server.
The purpose of this is to generate Debian packages. I have some C++ applications that were originally developed on my Ubuntu machine, and I need to (re)compile them on a Debian server in order to:
- build Deb packages for deployment on a Debian server
- make sure that the applications will definitely work on a debian server
The idea is so that I can do 90% of my development on Ubuntu (where I am more comfortable), and deploy a binary package that definitely works on Debian.
BTW, I am developing on Karmic Kola (Ubuntu 9.10).
