To make proper packages, you would need to do something like

    apt-get --diff-only source fltk1.1
    cd .../fltk # wherever your tree is
    zcat .../fltk1.1_1.1.9-6.diff.gz | patch -p1
    # resolve any conflicts
    dch -i
    debuild -us -uc

(assuming you're still sticking to 1.1.x; you'd need more extensive
changes for other branches, particularly 2.x).  In general, you may also
wish to consult http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/.
