Hi,

I am someone who is, unfortunately slow to learn new things, as my
obstinacy was always on making logical sense out of what I learn.

However, I am pleased to note that now, I can create rudimentary
Debian packages. Next time, it will be some reading about the
mysterious and bewitched debian/ subdirectory and what is the purpose
of the most commonly used files.

A simple and yet instructive reading would help place the foundations
for a deeper understanding. I have to assimilate the basics first.

Running dh_make creates a debian subdirectory filling it with numerous
files. Most of these files are a mystery to me as I have still no idea
what purpose they serve. However, running git commit on a local
repository, and then running git-buildpackage does produce a .deb
package, but without more knowledge, I am still too uninformed to do
any useable maintainer's work even for packages that I myself created.
