Aug 6, 2014 at 9:55 comment added user78927 @Gilles i know that dpkg-buildpackage is much more recommended but i haven't managed to create a package with that tool. I only build packages from python and bash scripts and i don't understand why i need to create the tar.gz folder. Also i don't know how to create a makefile that does nothing. I'll possibly ask the question but i wanted to try it some more times. For the moment I'm using this builder that i created deb-builder
Aug 5, 2014 at 22:05 comment added Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' @rsm If you use dpkg -b, you need to do everything manually. You shouldn't use dpkg -b, it's only meant to be called by higher-level programs. Use dpkg-buildpackage to build the binary package from a properly-formed source package. You can use dh_make to populate the source tree with a template for the Debian part of the source package (the debian directory).

Aug 5, 2014 at 13:43 comment added user78927 I was checking this but i don't have the file. Do i have to manually add a changelog.Debian.gz? I actually was adding the changelog as text file at /usr/share/doc/package/
