Applied to master, thanks!
We might want to make some changes - the src tarball is now just
"cde-<version>.tar.gz rather than cde-src-<version.tar.gz.
Also, the /var/dt and /etc/dt are created empty, so we could just do the
same in the postinstall script (debian/cde-desktop.postinst.debhelper ?).
One other thing I noticed, you call:
sudo ./admin/IntegTools/dbTools/installCDE -s . -destdir \
./debian/cde-desktop
That should probably be "-destDir" - it's case sensitive, and to avoid
the config* scripts from running, you might also want to add
"-DontRunScripts" option. Then, the post install scripts should do what
the normal config* scripts do for setup.
Also, how would I try this? I've not build a debian package before.

I used to develop these in my own repo, however many project simply
include the debian packaging files, so I am moving them to the main
repo. These will probably have to undergo major change when we switch to
autotools. The package doesn't work fully due to the postinstall files
not understanding the destdir attribute and failing to install /etc/dt
and /var/dt in destdir.
Thank you for your time,
