Sounds to me like you haven't properly done the debian/rules file. It's generally the makefile which compiles and creates all the packages. Please read: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-source.html#s-debianrules And look at all the dh_* scripts in the debian/rules script. Each of them has a manpage. You may want to read it. E.g. dh_install is copying files from your source directory into the directory where the Debian package will be built. And there is a file like debian/$PACKAGE.install which lists files installed by dh_install. > If I look now to the debian subdirectory, there are three subdirectories > tmp (which is my DESTDIR in the rules file), sipxportlib and > sipxportlib-dev. Those are probably the same names as the binary package that you configured in your debian/control file. Showing us your package so far may also help giving you a hint.
