Hi,

This is my first go at creating a debian package, so please excuse 
any mistakes that I have made/might make!

I am trying to create a debian package for RCF (a firewall for 
linux). There is currently a tarball and RPM of the firewall, but not 
a debian package, so I thought I might try and make one!

The main file (rc.firewall) is placed into /etc/rc.d/, and the config 
file in /etc. There are also some .tar files that are contained in 
the rcf tarball that are uncompressed and put into directories within 
/etc/firewall/.

I have read the maintainer's guide that is at the Debian 
Documentation Project, but it seems to only cover packages that 
require compiling - which RCF doesn't.

After running dh_make and cd'ing to the debian directory, is there a 
file that allows you to tell dpkg (or whatever is handling the 
package) to put certain files into certain places, and/or do certain 
things? I've looked at the debian/rules files, but that refers to 
compiling from source, and I don't need that!

Any help/hints would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
