Yes, I managed to confirm this.
Now that I understand better the directory locations
where commands must be typed, and the places
where files are intended to go, I can reproduce
the following recipe from scratch:
cd debian-med/trunk/packages/fis-gtm/fis-gtm-initial/trunk
make -f debian/rules get-orig-source
Get the following output:
. ./debian/get-orig-source
check version of software
-- Downloading updated package gtm_V54002B_linux_i686_pro.tar.gz
Filename i386: gtm_V54002B_linux_i686_pro.tar.gz
PKG: fis-gtm-initial
PKGVERSION: 54002B
architecture: i386
-- Downloading updated package gtm_V54002B_linux_x8664_pro.tar.gz
Filename i386: gtm_V54002B_linux_x8664_pro.tar.gz
PKG: fis-gtm-initial
PKGVERSION: 54002B
architecture: amd64
This brought the file:
fis-gtm-initial_54002B.orig.tar.gz
to the parent directory:
debian-med/trunk/packages/fis-gtm/fis-gtm-initial
which is verified by typing "ls .."
that returns:
fis-gtm-initial_54002B.orig.tar.gz trunk
then I go to the parent directory:
cd ..
where "pwd" returns:
debian-med/trunk/packages/fis-gtm/fis-gtm-initial
(BTW, in all "pwd"s results in this email,
I'm removing the base text "/home/ibanez/src"
since it is probably not relevant for the recipe).
and expand the .orig.tar.gz file:
tar -xzf *.orig.tar.gz
this creates a "fis-gtm-initial" directory.
I copy the "debian" directory into the new
"fis-gtm-initial" directory:
cp -a trunk/debian/ fis-gtm-initial
and I cd into it:
cd fis-gtm-initial/
at that point "ls" returns:
debian gtm_V54002B_linux_i686_pro-i386.tar.gz
gtm_V54002B_linux_x8664_pro-amd64.tar.gz
and "ls .." returns:
fis-gtm-initial fis-gtm-initial_54002B.orig.tar.gz trunk
Then I called "debuild".
(so my rule of thumb is that "debuild" must be called
from a directory that has the 'package name', in this
case "fis-gtm-initial" and that it expects the orig.tar.gz
file to be in the parent directory.)
the output of "debuild" is:

Which is good news.
I verify that there is a .tar.gz file down
in the debian directory now.
The command:
find . -name "*.tar.gz"
returns:
./gtm_V54002B_linux_i686_pro-i386.tar.gz
./gtm_V54002B_linux_x8664_pro-amd64.tar.gz
./debian/fis-gtm-initial/usr/lib/fis-gtm/distribution/gtm_V54002B_linux_i686_pro-i386.tar.gz
and I confirm that the command:
make -f debian/rules clean
cleans the "debian" directory.
It essentially removes the files:
debian/fis-gtm-initial/usr/lib
debian/fis-gtm-initial/usr/lib/fis-gtm
debian/fis-gtm-initial/usr/lib/fis-gtm/distribution
debian/fis-gtm-initial/usr/lib/fis-gtm/distribution/gtm_V54002B_linux_i686_pro-i386.tar.gz

debian/fis-gtm-initial/usr/share/doc/fis-gtm-initial/copyright
debian/fis-gtm-initial/usr/share/doc/fis-gtm-initial/changelog.Debian.gz
(this was verified by doing "find debian" before
and after doing "make -f debian/rules clean")
So,
It looks like I manage to replicate the
recipe and get the package to build.

This is REALLY helpful ! :-)
In retrospective, I should probably
have started with this one.

I'm now continuing with the
instructions in your other email:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-med/2012/01/msg00317.html
I'll reply to that one, in order
to keep the continuity of the
thread.
Thanks
