Year/version updates, Pt 1 Packaging Fix - v.0.5.6

[mendaxi]

Changes the Year and Version numbers to be up-to-date.

Highlights:

• Changes all instances of the Version no. ".0.4.4" except in prev. ver. variables to ".0.5.6"
• Changes the copyright/license expiration from 2014 to 2016
• Removes ebuild.sh as mentioned in Packaging #139
• Signed commits (I think) - what a relief!

[mendaxi]

Oh yes, I almost forgot:

• Fixes the debian packaging error in Packaging #139 with the following code in debian.sh

CURDIR=`pwd`
SHORTDIR=`basename ${CURDIR}`


# Intelligently detects current dir name and changes accordingly
mv ../${SHORTDIR} ../${DIR}


dpkg-buildpackage -F -us -uc


# This does not work if you don't have a private signing key
# To change it back, uncomment the next two lines.
#gpg -ba ../${APP}_${VERSION}-1_${ARCH_TYPE}.deb
#gpg -ba ../${APP}_${VERSION}.orig.tar.gz


# Restores back to the parent dir name that was established with the SHORTDIR and CURDIR vars
mv ../${DIR} ../${SHORTDIR}

However, with these changes, there needs to be a build dependency list update, because it will give you errors if you try to build from a clean OS.

I thought I removed ebuild.sh already?

It looks like it's still in the master branch?

Also, should I be using git rebase instead of git merge to get updates from mailchuck/master to my own repo? It's a little messy and confusing having the commits that other people have done being relabeled as my own.
I'm new to github and git, so apologies if I have caused any inconvenience.
