From scratch? http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ Or, if you mean from the existing source package, it's usually as simple as: apt-get source some-package apt-get build-dep some-package # hack the source, etc., and increment the changelog dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot dpkg -i ../*.deb -- Curse my natural showmanship!
