What are you actually trying to do?  'dpkg-deb' is almost certainly
the wrong thing (it'll try to do the final stage of package assembly,
but not actually build anything); the dpkg-buildpackage invocation is
closer, but probably requires you to be root.  My pick would be to
install the devscripts package, and then cd to the top of the source
tree (under /etc/apt??!?!) and then run 'debuild'.
