Yes, that's a good option for what Travis asked. I've only used it two 
or three times, but it Just Works.

If afterwards you need to turn it (or something else) into a package, 
I've found FPM (https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm) to be real handy. 
Whether you need .rpm or .deb, it makes it easy to quickly create a 
proper package without necessarily building up the whole machinery 
that's otherwise needed.
