As far as I can tell, the obvious things that go into the "Debian way"
for installing custom software are:
1) If your software isn't installed via Debian's packaging system, avoid
conflicts with the packaging system by installing it in places that
Debian's packaging system is not supposed to manipulate (e.g. /usr/local)
2) If your software needs an "init script", make sure that your script
includes a correct LSB header and supports at least the "standard" verbs
with their expected meanings.
