 excuse me, I think you missed some steps.  I can't find the 'cd' or
 'make' or 'echo' buttons in unity.

- apt-get build-dep dwm

and then, in the dwm-directory:
- edit the source like you want
- dpkg-buildpackage
- dpkg -i ../dwm*.deb

between editing the source and building the package you may want run something like 'dch 
local changes' to prevent your dwm gets overriden by apt with the same 
version in repository.


This may seem blatantly obvious and unspoken -- however: it is OK to 
install dwm to /usr/local or $HOME on the mentioned distros. It is a lot 
of work to roll packages per-setup and per-user. It also seems logical to 
put personal binaries in a personal directory.


It seems the real question here is How do I use Debian's package 
management facilities to install XYZ?. Suckless frowns upon this kind of 
question. Please see to using Debian docs next time!

Nowadays with inexpensive VPS and what not, your server is probably
not a multi-user system. So there is little point in bending over
backwards installing binaries in $HOME in my opinion.

You'll learn like I have, that Debian packages aren't all that.
/usr/local/bin is fine and manageable. Especially since the binaries
can have config.h tweaks.

I use Debian Sid, which is similar though not identical to Ubuntu. I
haven't tried to make a .deb file, which seems like an unnecessary
complication.  I simply got the tarball from suckless.org, unpacked it in
my bome directory, and did sudo make install which went off without
problems. The executable is installed in /usr/local/bin by default.

There is a precompiled dwm.deb package available for Debian, but of
course that doesn't let you configure anything, so it's really only
useful if you just want to see how dwm works.

We write software, we don't support distros, famous or otherwise.
Grab a tarball [1], and make install.

  apt-get source dwm
  sudo apt-get -b source dwm
  sudo dpkg -i dwm*.deb
 

Find out what packages dwm depends on.  Then append a -dev to all the
package names and install them.  (libx11 becomes libx11-dev, etc)
