  dpkg is the tool used which uses various rules
at different stages.

  for an overview of how to make a package you
can use the documentation at:

  https://www.debian.org/devel/

  and questions or issues can be answered via the
mentors mailing list, or perhaps the archive will
have the answer already supplied.

  the developers reference, newmaint and policy 
guides are there along with a draft PHP policy.

  i'm sure it can be done since the current PHP 
installation exists and gets upgraded at times.

  perhaps examining the PHP debs in conjunction
with the documentation will give you the answers.
