When you have source and just want to compile, without deep dependencies checking

Make sure you have all dependencies:

# apt-get install autotools-dev fakeroot dh-make build-essential

Extract the source file and cd into it. Then use dh_make to create the DEBIAN control files.

# dh_make

You will be presented with some options, choose the most appropriate for your case. Then edit ./DEBIAN/control and make sure the information is correct

Then run the following: (this has to be done as root)

# dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
