I never installed Gnuradio using a Debian package but if GRC is working that means your Gnuradio installation must be complete. Why don't you try running a few example programs and see if they work.
Run the dial_tone.py in the /usr/local/share/gnuradio/examples/audio directory. If you want to use GRC to run the example programs then run dial_tone.grc program in /usr/local/share/gnuradio/examples/grc directory. If you hear a dial_tone then most probably the installation is fine. If you have a USRP then you will find examples in 'digital' directory in the same path. On another note I don't understand what you mean by "Do I have to build it from scratch in grc? Or do I have to still build it from scratch using the "Build Guide". If its a debian package then the installation is done by the debian package manager and what you have at the end is a working installation. GRC is just a graphical tool and has got nothing to do with installation of gnuradio. Installation of Gnuradio from the source package is not at all difficult no matter how new one is to Linux. Just follow the instructions given here http://gnuradio.org/trac/wiki/UbuntuInstall and you will find how easy it is to install. If you still have problems then we can help you.
