The Debian packaging of the package-1.0.tar.xz, containing a simple C source following the «GNU Coding Standards» and «FHS», can be done with the debmake command as follows.

[base_dir] $ tar --xz -xvf package-1.0.tar.xz
[base_dir] $ cd package-1.0
[package-1.0] $ debmake
   ... Make manual adjustments of generated configuration files
[package-1.0] $ debuild

[3] Before dh_make, the deb-make command was popular. The current debmake package starts its version from 4.0 to avoid version conflicts with the obsolete debmake package, which provided the «deb-make» command.
