If you want to create a deb package of Kwave, e.g. for testing a version that is not yet available via official package repositories, then you can create your own package quite easily. First of all, you need to install some required tools:

% sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall

Then you can install the required build dependencies by pretending to install the dependencies of the official Kwave version:

% sudo apt-get build-dep kwave

% make deb
