Not every familiar with how to do deb package and this will be definitely useful
for these users when they want to use latest git (probably because of fix for
some known bugs existing in stable source) and deploy it on different machines.
In this sense, it would be nice to have deb package support. And we already
have rpm package function, so adding deb package looks quite reasonable to me.

Thanks
