Initial packaging for Debian This adds some source files, a script and skeleton for building a Debian package that installs the zcash daemon and CLI tool. To test it: Check out my branch. Build Zcash binaries: `./zcutil/build.sh` Build the package: `./zcutil/build-debian-package.sh` You now have a .deb in the source root folder, so install it: `sudo dpkg -i zcash-1.0.0-rc1-amd64.deb` Now you can run `zcashd`, `zcash-cli`, and `zcash-fetch-params` from `$PATH`. This pull request will need further refinement and review, so let's leave it open for a while.

What is Zcash?
Zcash is an implementation of the "Zerocash" protocol. Based on Bitcoin's code, it intends to offer a far higher standard of privacy and anonymity through a sophisticiated zero-knowledge proving scheme which preserves confidentiality of transaction metadata.
Zcash is unfinished and highly experimental. Use at your own risk.
Participation in the Zcash project is subject to a Code of Conduct.
