What goes wrong, or what do you not understand?

There are quite a few minimal examples out there, for example:

Creating .deb package out of some files

2016-01-10 Thread Himanshu Shekhar
I have created a tool comprising of two bash scripts and two configuration
files.
I tried to follow some tutorials available on debian.org and Stack Overflow
but didn't get the desired output.
The expected layout is as ;

/usr/bin/script1-link
/usr/bin/script2-link
/usr/bin/myfolder/script1
/usr/bin/myfolder/script2
/usr/bin/myfolder/conf1.bak
/usr/bin/myfolder/conf2.bak

script1-link and script2-link will change the directory to myfolder and
execute script1 or script2 as desired.

I have created the files changelog, compat, control, copyright, files in
directory named debian.

Now, I have to create the first package of my life, which I did following
some instructions at https://wiki.debian.org/IntroDebianPackaging but the
deb package created had no shell scripts.
I have very little idea about how package creation occurs after reading
certain manuals, but cannot get the desired result.

Thanking you in anticipation.
