      Hello,

      I'm developing set of python scripts to enable background music in Emulation Station (https://github.com/Rydra/bgm-for-es for reference) and I would wish to package it and create a package repository to be able to easily distribute it for Retropie users. I have found the following threat from raspberry forums (https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=40160&p=328867) taht contains certain instructions for creating the package (although I haven't tried it yet, gotta do that soon).

      I was wondering what would be the best practice/method to achieve my goal, sites where I could create a package repository, etc, so I would appreciate any insights that someone could give me in that regard or a starting point.

      Thanks,

      Rydra

        @Rydra IMHO putting it on github and providing a script to install it is the best way to provide it to RetroPie users.
