When you use debmake (the first thing you run on the clean source dir, if
I'm not mistaken), it will create the debian directory. Check in there for

I've finished packaging my first package for inclusion in Debian now that
I finally got accepted as a maintainer.
It's XDrawChem, a linux version of ChemDraw, a fairly necessary app for
chemistry folks (at least so my girlfriend tells me, and she's a chemistry
major here at Tech).
