Nope, it is exactly the same. Just make your deb package according to
normal desktop rules and the package should work fine for the phone.
The only trick right now is that not all PPAs will build the package
as ARM, which is necessary for the phone, but that restriction should
get lifted later on -- not sure when. So just package your app as you
normally would for the desktop, and everything else should just fall
into place.
