Kees, I've seen your name a lot around here, so I assume that means 
you're a Good Guy (tm) and a great person to ask a lingering, albeit 
tangent question.  I've recently starting building debs out of some of 
my own cruft, hoping to someday spiff it up enough for the rest of the 
world to laugh at.  :)

Anyway, I mostly write python and as I'm sure you're aware, it's rather 
portable, if done right.  Can you point me to a good source of info on 
building debs for Ubuntu/Debian the right way.  I already use svn and 
can clearly see from what I've learned so far that Debian and by 
extension Ubuntu too benefit from lots of automation.  I hope to make 
packages that work on a wide range of Ubuntu releases, yet work mostly 
at the source level.  I don't want to fiddle with the stuff in between 
each time each change, except to set up the automation.

I've already read the Debian New Maint Guide insofar as much as was 
needed to build my first few.
