Nice :-), I'd be curious to know how well Kolab runs on one of those. I used to run Kolab (2.3) on a PowerPC with 512MB of RAM, and it ran well enough with 5 users, so I guess it should be possible.

There's no no tutorial as such, although there are are plenty tutorials out there about building Debian packages.

We use git-buildpackage to build the debian packages. If you setup an ARM virtual machine I suppose that should work. If your setup has a different architecture, like amd64, you're looking at cross-building. I'm sure that's possible as well, but I have no personal experience.

We use debhelper as well, which takes care of the fakeroot stuff and many other things.

You'll find all the relevant git repositories here: http://git.kolabsys.com/apt. The files in the debian/ subdirectory control the building of the package. Especially control and rules would be of interest.

If you want to get Kolab running on you Raspberry Pi, you'll need to build the architecture-dependent packages, like (at least) libkolab and libkolabxml. These are the ones that have Architecture: any in debian/control.
