Support Debian/Ubuntu Style Packages

[behlendorf]

The build system should be updated to support building Debian/Ubuntu style packages.

This was sort of fixed by commit 2288aea62855117d9ac797c923427dcfd43ed668. As a short term work around I've automated the process of using alien to convert rpm packages to deb and tgz packages. The long term fix remains to add native packaging but I just don't have time for that. This I had time for:

$ lsb_release -d
Description:    Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS

$ ./configure
$ make deb

$ ls *.deb
spl_0.5.0-2_i386.deb
spl-modules_0.5.0-2_i386.deb
spl-modules-devel_0.5.0-2_i386.deb

$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

I did the DKMS packaging for Debian and Ubuntu here:

https://launchpad.net/~dajhorn/+archive/zfs

This packaging is a debian/ overlay for each of spl/, zfs, and lzfs/. Nothing in the repository needs to be changed.

I will likely put these changes into a git-buildpackage repo when I become more familiar with GitHub.

Closing issue, as noted above Dajhorn has taken care of this.
