Make sure you have debhelper (debuild) installed and run all
commands inside an amd64 linux box.
First, edit the debian/changelog file. Make sure you set the correct version
and distribution (lucid or precise), dch can help:
dch -i
Then, build the package (in a linux amd64 box):
debuild -us -uc
The package will be in the top dir ../.
