IMHO, that's one of the problems that beginners packagers have: there are several docs, which say different things (because they have been written at different time and not upgraded) and they often let you alone very soon (for instance, they talk about initial packaging and not about upgrading, whether it is because of a new upstream release or because of changes in your packaging). I assume this is because Debian is a lot of work and volunteers are not a lot. As an absolute beginner myself, I use: deb-make for initial packaging (in package debmake) build for.... building (in package devscripts) dch for managing changelog (in package devscripts) And it's enough to build nice packages (you'll need some utilities like pgp but be careful since you live in France). I will have to choose something to upload once I'll have my official registration :-)
