'''dh_make''' will make a directory called '''debian/''' with a few files in it. Now your task is to fill them. I usually start with '''control''', then edit '''copyright'''. There is also '''changelog''', '''rules''', '''dirs''' and more. In '''rules''' you will find some '''dh''' commands, they are all from debhelper. Each of them has a manpage, please refer to '''man debhelper''' for details, as well as the Debian New Maintainers' Guide. Read more about the Debian Policy Manual. Updating the '''debian/changelog''' is done with '''dch''' or debchange (symlink). | '''dh_make''' will make a directory called '''debian/''' with a few files in it. Now your task is to fill them.
