Hi Ilya. The easiest way to see packaging for a library (from an
upstream apt source) is to run
# This downloads the original source, debian specific patches, and a
package description file
$ apt-get source <pkgname>
# this unpacks all of the files
$ dpkg-source -x <pkgname>*.dsc

This produces a source directory with all of the packaging patches
applied. There may be additional patches carried by the package in the
debian directory with other packaging stuff.
